Testing the Hypothesis of Multiple Origins of Holoparasitism in Orobanchaceae: Phylogenetic Evidence from the Last Two Unplaced Holoparasitic Genera, Gleadovia and Phacellanthus [PDF]

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2017
Orobanchaceae is the largest family among the parasitic angiosperms. It comprises non-parasites, hemi- and holoparasites, making this family an ideal test case for studying the evolution of parasitism. Previous phylogenetic analyses showed that holoparasitism had arisen at least three times from the hemiparasitic taxa in Orobanchaceae.

Reproductive biology of the holoparasitic endophyteBdallophyton bambusarum(Rafflesiaceae) [PDF]

Botanical Journal of the Linnean Society, 1997
Abstract The reproductive biology of most species of Rafflesiaceae is unknown. We studied several aspects of that of Bdallophyton bambusarum Liebm. (Rafflesiaceae) in a subdeciduous tropical forest. Flowering of B. bambusarum is during the driest time of the year.

In the case of Striga hemonthica, pseudogene presence was not confirmed in a previous paper. Black/gray/white boxes indicate each gene present and are considered functional/pseudogene or fragment of gene present/gene absent.

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.

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.
