Parasitic Plant-Host Interactions: Molecular Mechanisms and Agricultural Resistance Strategies. [PDF]
Adv Sci (Weinh)Parasitic plants devastate global agriculture through sophisticated molecular interactions with host crops. This review synthesizes current understanding of parasitic plant‐host interactions, from strigolactone‐mediated germination and haustorium formation to host defense mechanisms.

Diverging repeatomes in holoparasitic Hydnoraceae uncover a playground of genome evolution. [PDF]
New PhytolSummary The transition from an autotrophic to a heterotrophic lifestyle is associated with numerous genomic changes. These often involve large genomic alterations, potentially driven by repetitive DNAs. Despite their recognized role in shaping plant genomes, the contribution of repetitive DNAs to parasitic plant genome evolution remains largely ...

High water availability increases the negative impact of a native hemiparasite on its non-native host [PDF]
, 2016 Environmental factors alter the impacts of parasitic plants on their hosts. However, there have been no controlled studies on how water availability modulates stem hemiparasites' effects on hosts.

Localised photosynthetic pigments in the node of a holoparasitic plant: support for shoot growth?
Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2022 Understanding the role of photosynthesis in the holoparasitic genus Cuscuta may give insights into the biology and evolution of these plants. We hypothesised that light irradiance on the node of C.
