PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 448-466, March 2025.Rafflesia is a genus of parasitic plants with the largest flowers in the world, unique to the threatened forest habitats of tropical Asia. Here, we report on genes that are active (the transcriptome) in Rafflesia seeds as part of a larger effort to understand Rafflesia.

Journal of Ecology, Volume 113, Issue 3, Page 635-648, March 2025.Population viability of the long‐lived orchid Gymnadenia conopsea increased with population size, but not with genetic diversity. Larger populations had higher and more stable adult survival, suggesting favourable habitats that buffer effects of climatic variation.

Journal of Biogeography, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 544-557, March 2025.ABSTRACT Aim The influence of mutualists on plant distributions is only beginning to be understood. Orchids depend on orchid mycorrhizal (OrM) fungi to germinate, yet the distribution of OrM fungi and how they vary according to both abiotic and biotic factors is unclear.

Fungi associated with terrestrial orchid mycorrhizas, seeds and protocorms
Mycoscience, 1996 The identity and ecological role of fungi in the mycorrhizal roots of 25 species of mature terrestrial orchids and in 17 species of field incubated orchid seedlings were examined. Isolates of symbiotic fungi from mature orchid mycorrhizas were basidiomycetes primarily in the generaCeratorhiza, Epulorhiza andMoniliopsis; a few unidentified taxa with ...

Establishment of a Biolistic-Mediated Transformation System for an Indigenous Fragrant Orchid, Phalaenopsis Violacea [PDF]
, 2006 Phalaenopsis, orchid recognised by its moth-like shape, orderly arranged flower, and long flower shelf-life, is one of the most important orchids grown for commercial production of cut flowers and potted plants.

Responses of ectomycorrhizal fungi to changes in carbon and nutrient availability [PDF]
, 2001 Ectomycorrhizal (ECM) fungi may receive 20% of the total C fixed by their host plants and are essential components of host nutrient acquisition. As a consequence of the vast physiological diversity that exists among ECM fungi, changes in community ...

Rhizoctonia -Scots pine interactions : detection, impact on seedling performance and host defence gene response [PDF]
, 2008 Rhizoctonia spp. are ubiquitous soil inhabiting fungi that enter into pathogenic or symbiotic associations with plants. In general Rhizoctonia spp. are regarded as plant pathogenic fungi and many cause root rot and other plant diseases which results in ...

Biodiversity: so much more than legs and leaves [PDF]
, 2013 Microorganisms inhabit virtually every possible niche on Earth, including those at the outer envelope of survival. However, the focus of most conservation authorities and ecologists is the ‘legs and leaves’ side of biology – the ‘macrobiology’ that can ...

Cell-specific expression of plant nutrient transporter genes in orchid mycorrhizae
Plant Science, 2017 Orchid mycorrhizal protocorms and roots are heterogeneous structures composed of different plant cell-types, where cells colonized by intracellular fungal coils (the pelotons) are close to non-colonized plant cells. Moreover, the fungal coils undergo rapid turnover inside the colonized cells, so that plant cells containing coils at different ...

Comparison between the Wheeler-Thanhauser Orchid Collection at Ball State University and the Orchid Collection Riyadh, Saudi Arabia [PDF]
, 2015 The beauty, complexity as well as the implausible diversity of the orchid flowers are unrivaled in the world. Orchids can be found in the equatorial tropics as well as the arctic tundra.
