Mitochondrial genome evolution in parasitic plants [PDF]
BMC Evolutionary Biology, 2019 Background Parasitic plants rely on their host to cover their nutritional requirements either for their entire life or a smaller part of it. Depending on the level of parasitism, a proportional reduction on the plastid genome has been found.
