A potential role of heat-moisture couplings in the range expansion of <i>Striga asiatica</i>. [PDF]
Ecol EvolOur research examines the effects of climate change on the distribution of parasitic weeds, such as Orobanche, Phelipanche, and Striga, which pose threats to global food security. Utilizing satellite data and GBIF observations, we find climate‐induced shifts in habitats and expansion patterns, notably the elevation increase of Striga asiatica ...

Genome and Single-Cell Transcriptome Reveal the Evolution of Holoparasitic Plants: A Case Study of Cistanche deserticola. [PDF]
Plant Biotechnol JABSTRACT The Orobanchaceae family, the largest group of parasitic plants, spans a complete spectrum from autotrophic to holoparasitic species. As a typical endangered holoparasitic species within this family, Cistanche deserticola is a parasitic plant that is widely harvested for traditional medicine in desertic regions, and of growing importance as a ...

Altered Mitochondrial Respiration Is Associated With Loss of Nuclear-Encoded OXPHOS Genes in Parasitic Broomrapes. [PDF]
Ecol EvolThe holoparasitic tribe Orobancheae demonstrated significant gene losses in their nuclear‐encoded mitochondrial OXPHOS genes. Despite these losses, high resolution respirometry revealed robust mitochondrial respiration in Orobancheae by shifting activities to fully nuclear encoded alternative complexes. ABSTRACT Parasitic plants, characterized by their
