Abstract Plants are exposed to infection and predation by organisms from most kingdoms of life, including their own. Layers of molecular defence mechanisms have evolved to limit damage and disease from microbial and insect pathogens, and plants can also defend themselves against attack by members of their own kingdom.

Cytokinins (CKs) induce papillae (prehaustorium) formation (A, red arrow). (±)‐Catechins application prevent CK‐induced prehaustorium formation without affecting radicle growth (B). Soil application of (±)‐catechins is effective in lowering parasite attachment to tomato plants. Abstract BACKGROUND Phelipanche ramosa L.

Summary Cuscuta campestris, a stem parasitic plant, has served as a valuable model plant for the exploration of plant–plant interactions and molecular trafficking. However, a major barrier to C. campestris research is that a method to generate stable transgenic plants has not yet been developed.

Multiple genotypes of Phelipanche ramosa indicate repeated introduction to the Americas
Abstract Premise Phelipanche ramosa is an economically damaging parasitic plant that has been reported in North America since the late 1800s. While this species comprises a variety of genetically distinct host races in its native range, the genetic composition of adventive populations in the New World remains unexplored.

Tomato Mutants Reveal Root and Shoot Strigolactone Involvement in Branching and Broomrape Resistance
The phytohormones strigolactones (SLs) control root and shoot branching and are exuded from roots into the rhizosphere to stimulate interaction with mycorrhizal fungi.

The Mechanism Involved in High-Lycopene Tomato Mutants for Broomrape Resistance
The root parasitic weed Phelipanche aegyptiaca (Pers.) Pomel poses a serious threat to solanaceous crops, leading to yield losses of up to 80% in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.). Strigolactones (SLs), derived from the carotenoid metabolic pathway, serve

Recent advances in Broomrapes research [PDF]
Orobanchaceae (broomrapes) is a morphologically diverse family of predominantly herbaceous, parasitic plants. The majority of species are facultative or obligate root parasites that subsist on broad-leaf plants, thereby depleting them of nutrients ...
