Notas sobre la familia Loranthaceae y el parasitismo secundario

open access: hybridBotan‪ical Sciences, 1963
La in vasión de Psittacanthus calyculatns (D. C.) Don., Phoradendron purpusi Trel. y Strulanthus densiflorus por las tres especies de lorantáceas mencionadas al respecto, nos hacen ver que aunque existe cierta selectividad hacia el hospedero, la ...

Genome-Wide Identification, Characterization, and Comparative Analysis of NLR Resistance Genes in Coffea spp. [PDF]

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
The largest family of disease resistance genes in plants are nucleotide-binding site leucine-rich repeat genes (NLRs). The products of these genes are responsible for recognizing avirulence proteins (Avr) of phytopathogens and triggering specific defense

Life‐stage and sex influence Philornis ectoparasitism in a Neotropical woodpecker Melanerpes striatus with essential male parental care

open access: yesIbis, Volume 165, Issue 4, Page 1235-1250, October 2023., 2023
The nestlings of many Neotropical bird species suffer from Philornis (Diptera: Muscidae) ectoparasitism. Although nestlings are typically considered the intended targets, recent work indicates that Philornis infest adult birds more frequently than previously appreciated, yet few studies have concurrently surveyed nestlings and adults for Philornis in ...

Prosopanche: A remarkable genus of parasitic plants

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 2, Page 163-168, March 2023., 2023
Prosopanche is a remarkable yet poorly known genus of parasitic plants. We provide an up‐to‐date revision of the current state of understanding of Prosopanche, including taxonomy, biogeography, plant–pollinator ecology and host–parasite interactions. This Flora Obscura article will deliver this extraordinary plant genus to the attention of the wider ...

Functional traits and foraging behaviour: Avian vampire fly larvae change the beak and fitness of their Darwin's finch hosts

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 36, Issue 7, Page 1806-1817, July 2022., 2022
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract The avian beak is a key morphological trait used for foraging. If parasites alter beak shape, we may expect changes in host foraging behaviour. Larvae of the avian vampire fly Philornis downsi cause naris enlargement in Darwin's finch nestlings when first and second ...

Top‐down cascading effects of seed‐feeding beetles and their parasitoids on plants and leaf herbivores

open access: yesFunctional Ecology, Volume 36, Issue 6, Page 1500-1512, June 2022., 2022
Read the free Plain Language Summary for this article on the Journal blog. Abstract When feeding on a plant, herbivorous insects alter the quality of the plant as a food source. This affects other organisms interacting with the same plant. These so‐called ‘plant‐mediated interactions’ can be altered by parasitoids that attack the herbivores.

Parasitization of bats by bat flies (Streblidae) in fragmented habitats

open access: yesBiotropica, Volume 52, Issue 3, Page 488-501, May 2020., 2020
Abstract Parasites represent a large fraction of the world's biodiversity. They control host population sizes and contribute to ecosystem functioning. However, surveys on species diversity rarely include parasitic species. Bats often present traits favoring parasite diversity, such as large home ranges, long life spans, and large colonies.
