Genomic comparison of non-photosynthetic plants from the family Balanophoraceae with their photosynthetic relatives [PDF]
PeerJ, 2021 The plant family Balanophoraceae consists entirely of species that have lost the ability to photosynthesize. Instead, they obtain nutrients by parasitizing other plants.

Botanical parasitism of an insect by a parasitic plant [PDF]
Current Biology, 2018 We report evidence of a new trophic interaction in nature whereby a parasitic plant attacks multiple species of insects that manipulate plant tissue when the two co-occur on a shared primary host plant. Most plant species are attacked by a great diversity of external and internal herbivores [1].

Effects of Parasitism on the Competitive Ability of Invasive and Native Species
Life, 2022 Parasitic plants can often seriously harm host plants and, thus, alter competitive dominance between hosts and neighbouring species. However, whether and how parasitic plants differently affect the competitive abilities of invasive and the native plants ...

Occurrence of Plant-Parasitic Nematodes on Ornamental Foliage Plants, Citrus Orchards, and Tea Plantations in Korea [PDF]
Research in Plant Disease, 2023 This study was conducted to investigate the plant-parasitic nematodes of ornamental foliage plants, citrus orchards, and tea plantations from July to December 2022. As a result of the investigation of plant-parasitic nematodes in 415 foliage plants, root-

Chemical genetics and strigolactone perception [version 1; referees: 2 approved]
F1000Research, 2017 Strigolactones (SLs) are a collection of related small molecules that act as hormones in plant growth and development. Intriguingly, SLs also act as ecological communicators between plants and mycorrhizal fungi and between host plants and a collection of
