2D and 3D visualization of herbaceous plant–plant contact zones using high‐resolution X‐ray computed tomography (HRXCT)

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 367-381, March 2025.
Parasitic plants that deprive crops of water and nutrients are an increasingly concerning food security issue, affecting the livelihood of millions of subsistence, small‐ and mid‐scale farmers. An in‐depth understanding of parasite–host interactions is required to develop species‐specific and ecologically sustainable parasite management methods.

First Report of Branched Broomrape (Phelipanche ramosa) on Celeriac (Apium graveolens) in Eastern France

open access: yesPlant Disease, 2014
Branched broomrape, Phelipanche ramosa (L.) Pomel (syn. Orobanche ramosa L.), is a chlorophyll-lacking, obligate root parasitic plant that infests Brassicaceae, Solanaceae, and legumes (3). In western France, P. ramosa has invaded oilseed rape fields since the 1990s, causing significant yield losses (1).

Can we breed for durable resistance to broomrapes?

open access: yesPhytopathologia Mediterranea, 2018
The broomrapes (Orobanche and Phelipanche) are parasitic plants that have modified biology to feed on other plants, completely losing autotrophic capability. Some broomrape species have adapted to agricultural ecosystems becoming parasitic weeds.

The Full-Size ABCG Transporter of Medicago truncatula Is Involved in Strigolactone Secretion, Affecting Arbuscular Mycorrhiza

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2020
Strigolactones (SLs) are plant-derived signaling molecules that stimulate the hyphal branching of arbuscular mycorrhizal fungi (AMF), and consequently promote symbiotic interaction between the fungus and the plant.

Gibberellin action‐based strategies show promise in the control of Striga—A major threat to global agriculture

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 411-421, March 2025.
The root‐parasitic plant Striga hermonthica can cause severe crop failure, leading to significant agricultural and economic losses in Africa. Despite the promising target offered by the Striga seed germination mechanism for developing control methods, effective control methods have yet to be established.

Parasitic plants are models for examining global food security, biodiversity loss and host–parasite evolution, in a changing world

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 7, Issue 2, Page 303-307, March 2025.
Parasitic plants, though often overlooked, are of exceptional importance and play a major functional role in the world's ecosystems. Where parasitic plants affect agricultural systems, they pose a threat to global food security at a time when this is already foreshadowed by a fast‐changing climate, a growing human population, economic volatility and ...

Parasitic success of the pathogenic plant Phelipanche ramosa (L.) Pomel. (Orobanchaceae) differs in some re‐infected versus naïve tomato cultivars

open access: yesWeed Research, Volume 65, Issue 2, March/April 2025.
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.

Comparative Analysis of Two Neighboring Conducive and Suppressive Soils Toward Plant Parasitism Caused by Phelipanche ramosa on Brassica napus

open access: yesPhytobiomes Journal
In Western France, rapeseed (Brassica napus) cultivation faces substantial yield losses due to the root holoparasitic plant Phelipanche ramosa. However, recent observations have shown a reduction in parasitism within previously heavily infested fields ...

Characterization resistance mechanisms in faba bean (Vicia faba) against broomrape species (Orobanche and Phelipanche spp.)

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2016
Faba bean (Vicia faba) production in Mediterranean and Near East agriculture is severely constrained by broomrape infection. The most widely distributed broomrape species affecting faba bean is Orobanche crenata, although O.
