Anatomical and micromorphological properties of holoparasite Orobanche gracilis and Orobanche fuliginosa (Orobanchaceae) species

, 2016
Holoparasite Orobanche gracilis Sm. and O.fuliginosa Reut. ex Jord. were micromorphologically and anatomically examined. In anatomical studies, the transverse and surface section of the root, stem and leaf of species were examined to determine ...

Orobanche crenata control in three faba bean varieties by soaking seeds in acetylsalicylate solutions [PDF]

Journal of Crop Protection
The prevalence of Orobanche crenata on faba bean fields in the Mediterranean region is a serious problem. The chemical inducers, including salicylic acid and its analogues were reported to activate the systemic acquired resistance in plants to subsequent

Root holoparasite Balanophora polyandra Griff. (Balanophoraceae) in eastern Himalaya (Sikkim, India): distribution, range, status and threats

Journal of Threatened Taxa, 2018
Balanophora J.R. Forster & G. Forster (Balanophoraceae) is a poorly studied genus of root holoparasite native to temperate and tropical regions of Asia and the Pacific.  The occurrences of Balanophora polyandra Griff.

Differences in seed germination response of two populations of Phelipanche ramosa (L.) Pomel to a set of GR24 concentrations and durations of stimulation

, 2021
International audiencePhelipanche ramosa is a major weed holoparasite characterized by a broad host range with a suboptimal development on numerous hosts, suggesting inter- or intra-species specificities. Seeds of P.

Complete Plastid Genome of the Recent Holoparasite Lathraea squamaria Reveals Earliest Stages of Plastome Reduction in Orobanchaceae. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2016
Plants from the family Orobanchaceae are widely used as a model to study different aspects of parasitic lifestyle including host-parasite interactions and physiological and genomic adaptations. Among the latter, the most prominent are those that occurred

Large‐scale nuclear and plastid phylogenomic analyses inform an updated Angiosperm Phylogeny Group classification: APG V

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 64, Issue 5, Page 845-874, September 2026.
This revision of the APG classification considers the extensive recent analyses of hundreds of nuclear and plastid genes for many angiosperm species. Although previous versions of the APG classification were largely based on uniparentally inherited markers (plastid DNA, largely maternally inherited), there has emerged since APG IV extensive evidence of

Partial mycoheterotrophy: a common strategy in arbuscular mycorrhizal plants?

New Phytologist, Volume 251, Issue 6, Page 3096-3110, September 2026.
Proposed autotrophy to mycoheterotrophy continuum among arbuscular mycorrhizal plants. Summary The vast majority of land plants transfer part of the organic carbon they produce by photosynthesis to arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi inside their root cells; the fungi in turn help plants to take up nutrients and water from the soil.

Taxonomic complexity in the parasitic plant genus Cistanche: Evidence from phylogenomics

TAXON, Volume 75, Issue 4, August 2026.
Abstract “Desert hyacinths” (genus Cistanche) are striking parasitic plants of historical and cultural importance that include species traded widely for herbal medicine. Despite the need for robust taxonomy, the application of names in the genus remains confused.

Vestigial Plastids in Parasitic Plants: Evolutionary Remnants or Adaptive Innovations?

Plant, Cell &Environment, Volume 49, Issue 8, Page 5401-5420, August 2026.
ABSTRACT Throughout the evolutionary history of plants, chloroplasts originating from a cyanobacterial endosymbiosis have undergone remarkable adaptation and specialization, giving rise to a multitude of plastid types. The evolution toward parasitism in plants represents a particularly extreme case of such specialization.
