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

Radicle growth regulation of root parasitic plants by auxin-related compounds
bioRxivRoot parasitic plants in the Orobancheceae, such as Striga and Orobanche, cause significant damage to crop production. The germination step of these root parasitic plants is induced by host-root-derived strigolactones (SLs).

BMC 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
Frontiers 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.

Native parasitic plants: Biological control for plant invasions?
Applied Vegetation Science, 2020 28 Plant invasions cause biodiversity loss and degradation in ecosystems worldwide. The invasive 29 species involved may be introduced, or native invaders, and controlling them is a major global 30 challenge.

PLoS ONE, 2013 Dodders are among the most important parasitic plants that cause serious yield losses in crop plants. In this report, we sought to unveil the genetic basis of dodder parasitism by profiling the trancriptomes of Cuscuta pentagona and C. suaveolens, two of

Subtilase activity in intrusive cells mediates haustorium maturation in parasitic plants.
Plant Physiology, 2020 Parasitic plants that infect crops are devastating to agriculture throughout the world. These parasites develop a unique inducible organ called the haustorium that connects the vascular systems of the parasite and host to establish a flow of water and ...
