Parasitic Plant-Host Interactions: Molecular Mechanisms and Agricultural Resistance Strategies. [PDF]

open access: yesAdv Sci (Weinh)
Parasitic plants devastate global agriculture through sophisticated molecular interactions with host crops. This review synthesizes current understanding of parasitic plant‐host interactions, from strigolactone‐mediated germination and haustorium formation to host defense mechanisms.

Has the Striga problem been solved? A field perspective critique of recent progress. [PDF]

open access: yesPest Manag Sci
The potential field efficacy of recently proposed breeding, biocontrol, suicidal germination, gene editing and transgenic solutions for Striga control is critically evaluated and mostly found wanting improvements. Abstract Three root‐parasitic witchweed (Striga) species can cause up to total loss of grain and legume crops for millions of farmers in ...

In vitro dynamic and quantitative monitoring of strigolactone-signaling complex formation by time-resolved FRET. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant J
We developed a new in vitro method using time‐resolved FRET to evaluate the dynamic activation of the strigolactone (SL) receptors. This system was used to gain deeper insights into the molecular mechanism of SL‐signaling complex formation and to detect naturally occurring SLs.

Parasitic plants in Europe: ecological niches and spatial patterns. [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Biol (Stuttg)
Parasitic plant functional types in Europe exhibit different distribution patterns in terms of habitats, geography, and major environmental gradients, reflecting their physiological properties. Abstract Parasitic plants inhabit a wide range of ecosystems worldwide, where they may have critical roles as “ecosystem engineers”.

Orobanche flava Mart, ex F.W. Schultz (Orobanchaceae) in the Iberian Península

open access: yesAnales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2003
Orobanche flava is reported in the N of the Iberian Península. Its diversity and distribution is analyzed for the península: var. flava in the Pyrenees and var. albicans Rhiner in the Cantabrian Mountain chain. Lectotypification of O. flava var. albicans

Response of wild and weedy broomrapes to synthetic strigolactone analogue GR24 [PDF]

open access: yesJournal of Central European Agriculture, 2014
Parasitic plants of genera Orobanche and Phelipanche germinate after exposition to chemical signals exuded by roots of the host plants. The most studied germination stimulants belong to strigolactones (SLs), the newly discovered plant hormones which are ...

Study of some resistance mechanisms to Orobanche spp. infestation in faba bean (Vicia faba L.) breeding lines in Tunisia

open access: yesPlant Production Science, 2016
The behavior of seven faba bean breeding lines toward Orobanche foetida and Orobanche crenata infestation was examined under field, pots, and in vitro conditions and compared to reference cultivars.

Orobanchaceae in the “Flora iberica” area: new taxa, excluded taxa, and typification

open access: yesAnales del Jardín Botánico de Madrid, 2000
Two new Orobanche taxa are described: O. austrohispanica MJ.Y. Foley, and O. crinita Viv. var. occidentalis MJ.Y. Foley. Thirty-one species or subspecies of Orobanche and one species of Cistanche have been confirmed as being present within the Flora ...

Flavonoids and Strigolactones in Root Exudates as Signals in Symbiotic and Pathogenic Plant-Fungus Interactions

open access: yesMolecules, 2007
Secondary plant compounds are important signals in several symbiotic and pathogenic plant-microbe interactions. The present review is limited to two groups of secondary plant compounds, flavonoids and strigolactones, which have been reported in root ...
