Lectotypifications and taxonomic changes in the holoparasitic Orobanchaceae

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.
Based on further extensive studies of specimens in various herbaria, lectotypes are designated for many taxa of holoparasitic Orobanchaceae. In particular, 47 names in the genera Boschniakia (incl. Xylanche), Cistanche, Orobanche, Phelipanche and Phelypaea are lectotypified.

The seed transcriptome of Rafflesia reveals horizontal gene transfer and convergent evolution: Implications for conserving the world's largest flower

open access: yesPLANTS, 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.

Aging seeds of weedy broomrapes and witchweeds lose sensitivity to strigolactones as DNA demethylates

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 476-485, March 2025.
Broomrapes and witchweeds have devastating effects on crops in parts of Europe, Africa, and Asia. The key to their success is the production of copious, long‐lived seeds, which germinate in response to the perception of chemicals released by their hosts' roots.

microRNA‐encoded peptides inhibit seed germination of the root parasitic plant Orobanche cumana

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 436-447, March 2025.
The root parasitic plant Orobanche cumana (sunflower broomrape) is one of the major pests of sunflower crops. Despite intense efforts to develop effective agricultural practices and breeding programs, selective control of broomrapes is still rare and ineffective in terms of sustainability.

Parasitic plants are models for examining global food security, biodiversity loss and host–parasite evolution, in a changing world

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 303-307, March 2025.
Parasitic plants, though often overlooked, are of exceptional importance and play a major functional role in the world's ecosystems. Where parasitic plants affect agricultural systems, they pose a threat to global food security at a time when this is already foreshadowed by a fast‐changing climate, a growing human population, economic volatility and ...
