Holoparasitic plant–host interactions and their impact on Mediterranean ecosystems [PDF]
Plant Physiology, 2021 Abstract Although photosynthesis is essential to sustain life on Earth, not all plants use sunlight to synthesize nutrients from carbon dioxide and water. Holoparasitic plants, which are important in agricultural and natural ecosystems, are dependent on other plants for nutrients.

PRELIMINARY HISTOANATOMICAL STUDY OF SAPRIA HIMALAYANA GRIFF. F. ALBOVINOSA FLOWER BUDS AND ITS INTERSECTION WITH ITS HOST PLANT TETRASTIGMA LAOTICUM GAGNEP. [PDF]
Journal of Plant Development, 2021 Sapria, a holoparasitic plant of Rafflesiaceae is still understudied in term of anatomical, even more in histoanatomical study. This study aimed to perform preliminary observation on Sapria himalayana Griff. f. albovinosa morphology on its early and late

Extreme plastomes in holoparasitic Balanophoraceae are not the norm
BMC Genomics, 2023 Abstract Background Balanophoraceae plastomes are known for their highly condensed and re-arranged nature alongside the most extreme nucleotide compositional bias known to date, culminating in two independent reconfigurations of their genetic code.

How do holoparasitic plants exploit vitamin K1? [PDF]
Plant Signal Behav, 2021 Phylloquinone (vitamin K1) is a thylakoid-embedded electron carrier essential for photosynthesis. Paradoxically, we found that phylloquinone biosynthesis is retained in the nonphotosynthetic holoparasite Phelipanche aegyptiaca (Egyptian broomrape). The phylloquinone pathway genes are preferentially expressed during development of the invasive organ ...

Induced defence by a root hemiparasite increases host plant resistance against future infection. [PDF]
Plant Biol (Stuttg)Infection by root hemiparasites can increase mortality of parasites during future infection, indicating induced host defence mechanisms. Abstract European grassland plants are frequently attacked by root hemiparasites. However, little is known about host defence responses to parasitism.

TISSUE DIFFERENTIATION OF THE EARLY AND THE LATE FLOWER BUDS OF RAFFLESIA PATMA BLUME [PDF]
Journal of Plant Development, 2020 The flower bud of Rafflesia patma Blume following the protocorm stage of the flower will undergo rapid cell growth followed by the differentiation stage which lead to the later stage of the flower bud morphogenesis into the floral organs.

Trophic Transfer without Biomagnification of Cadmium in a Soybean-Dodder Parasitic System
Plants, 2021 Cadmium (Cd) is among the most available and most toxic heavy metals taken up by plants from soil. Compared to the classic plant-animal food chains, the host-parasitic plant food chains have, thus far, been largely overlooked in the studies of Cd trophic
