Effect of parasitic plant Cuscuta australis R. Br. on growth of three invasive plants

open access: yes浙江大学学报. 农业与生命科学版, 2012
Effects of parasitic plant Cuscuta australis on the growth of three invasive plants, including Erigeron annuus, Chenopodium ambrosioides and Bidens pilosa, were investigated in a common garden experiment. The parasitic C.

CRISPR/Cas9 mediated mutagenesis of MORE AXILLARY GROWTH 1 in tomato confers resistance to root parasitic weed Phelipanche aegyptiaca

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2021
Root parasitic weeds infect numerous economically important crops, affecting total yield quantity and quality. A lack of an efficient control method limits our ability to manage newly developing and more virulent races of root parasitic weeds. To control

Mobile Host mRNAs Are Translated to Protein in the Associated Parasitic Plant Cuscuta campestris

open access: yesPlants, 2021
Cuscuta spp. are obligate parasites that connect to host vascular tissue using a haustorium. In addition to water, nutrients, and metabolites, a large number of mRNAs are bidirectionally exchanged between Cuscuta spp. and their hosts. This trans-specific

Grazing limits natural biological controls of woody encroachment in Inner Mongolia Steppe

open access: yesBiology Open, 2017
Woody encroachment in grasslands has become increasingly problematic globally. Grazing by domestic animals can facilitate woody encroachment by reducing competition from herbaceous plants and fire frequency.

Risk versus reward: host dependent parasite mortality rates and phenotypes in the facultative generalist Triphysaria versicolor

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2019
Background Parasitic plants engage in a complex molecular dialog with potential host plants to identify a host and overcome host defenses to initiate development of the parasitic feeding organ, the haustorium, invade host tissues, and withdraw water and ...

Apoplastic interactions between plants and plant root intruders

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2015
Numerous pathogenic or parasitic organisms attack plant roots to obtain nutrients, and the apoplast including the plant cell wall is where the plant cell meets such organisms.

Cloning and characterisation of a maize carotenoid cleavage dioxygenase (ZmCCD1) and its involvement in the biosynthesis of apocarotenoids with various roles in mutualistic and parasitic interactions [PDF]

open access: yes, 2008
Colonisation of maize roots by arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi leads to the accumulation of apocarotenoids (cyclohexenone and mycorradicin derivatives).
