Two mistletoes are too many?: Interspecific occurrence of mistletoes on the same host tree
Acta Botânica Brasílica, 2013 Mistletoe can have a major impact on the fitness of the host plant. If there is more than one species of mistletoe on the same host tree, the overall impact might be amplified.

Oikos, EarlyView.Seed dispersal by frugivores is a central process linking plant reproduction, animal foraging, population persistence, and ecosystem resilience. Currently, the spatial template sustaining these interactions is rapidly reconfigured by habitat loss and fragmentation promoted by human activity.

Leaf trait adaptations of xylem-tapping mistletoes and their hosts in sites of contrasting aridity [PDF]
, 2017 Background and aims Xylem-tapping mistletoes may experience relaxed selective pressure to use water efficiently during photosynthesis because of lower per-unit costs for water acquisition than experienced by host plants. As a result, we hypothesised that

Evaluating the network structure of different Neotropical plant-plant interactions [PDF]
Network Biology, 2019 Plant species can be used as hosts by other plant species, both in antagonistic interactions (e.g., parasitism), and in commensal interactions (e.g., epiphytism).

Embedded Interactions and Selective Disclosure: Network Effects on Conversations aboard Skylab
Symbolic Interaction, EarlyView.How do absent others influence our interactions? We argue in this paper that interactions are embedded within networks formed by chains of specific relationships between known third parties. The anticipation of future interactions with external others conditions our interpretation of the current situation and affects our behavior in the interaction. We
