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

Notas sobre la familia Loranthaceae y el parasitismo secundario
La in vasión de Psittacanthus calyculatns (D. C.) Don., Phoradendron purpusi Trel. y Strulanthus densiflorus por las tres especies de lorantáceas mencionadas al respecto, nos hacen ver que aunque existe cierta selectividad hacia el hospedero, la ...

Abstract Ecological stoichiometry emphasizes that mismatches between the elemental composition of organisms and their resources can shape ecological interactions, evolutionary trajectories, and nutrient cycling. For hemiparasitic plants such as mistletoes, which draw water and nutrients from hosts while maintaining their own photosynthesis, such ...

Evolution of pollen morphology in Loranthaceae
Earlier studies indicate a strong correlation of pollen morphology and ultrastructure with taxonomy in Loranthaceae. Using high-resolution light microscopy and scanning electron microscopy imaging of the same pollen grains, we document pollen types of 35

Medicinal Flora of the Umaru Musa Yar'adua University Herbarium: A Taxonomic Survey
ABSTRACT Herbaria provide verifiable, specimen‐based records that are fundamental to taxonomic research and increasingly important for documenting medicinal plant diversity. We present a comprehensive, voucher‐based assessment of the medicinal flora represented in the Umaru Musa Yar'adua University (UMYU) Herbarium, Katsina, northwestern Nigeria.

ABSTRACT Presently, there are three main hypotheses to explain why the leaves of many Australian mistletoes resemble their hosts. The eco‐physiological convergence hypothesis suggests that mistletoes must manage their physiology, especially their water relations, to match those of the host, to avoid killing themselves or the host branch they have ...

European mistletoe shares a similar demographic strategy with non‐parasitic plants
European mistletoe (Viscum album) does not have a distinct demographic strategy from non‐parasitic plants, as quantified by time‐based life history traits. We found that mistletoe vital rates were driven by mistletoe size and position in the host tree.
