Gene Losses and Variations in Chloroplast Genome of Parasitic Plant Macrosolen and Phylogenetic Relationships within Santalales [PDF]

open access: yesInternational Journal of Molecular Sciences, 2019
Macrosolen plants are parasitic shrubs, several of which are important medicinal plants, that are used as folk medicine in some provinces of China. However, reports on Macrosolen are limited. In this study, the complete chloroplast genome sequences of Macrosolen cochinchinensis, Macrosolen tricolor and Macrosolen bibracteolatus are reported.

Lacomucinaea, a new monotypic genus in Thesiaceae (Santalales)

Phytotaxa, 2015
A new monotypic genus from southern Africa is described based on Thesium lineatum. Lacomucinaea lineata has a number of vegetative and floral morphological features that differ from Thesium and other members of Thesiaceae. An apparently unique feature of the plant is the presence of succulent, fusiform, terete leaves that are caducous, eventually ...

Expression of ovule and integument‐associated genes in reduced ovules of Santalales

Evolution & Development, 2010
SUMMARYSantalales comprise mainly parasitic plants including mistletoes and sandalwoods. Bitegmic ovules similar to those found in most other angiosperms are seen in many members of the order, but other members exhibit evolutionary reductions to the unitegmic and ategmic conditions.

Rate heterogeneity in six protein-coding genes from the holoparasite Balanophora (Balanophoraceae) and other taxa of Santalales [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2012
The holoparasitic flowering plant Balanophora displays extreme floral reduction and was previously found to have enormous rate acceleration in the nuclear 18S rDNA region. So far, it remains unclear whether non-ribosomal, protein-coding genes of Balanophora also evolve in an accelerated fashion and whether the genes with high substitution rates retain ...

New Caledonia: A Hot Spot for Valuable Chemodiversity Part 3: Santalales, Caryophyllales, and Asterids

Chemistry and Biodiversity, 2016
The flora of New Caledonia encompasses more than 3000 plant species and an endemism of almost 80%. New Caledonia is even considered as one of the 34 ‘hot spots’ for biodiversity. Considering the current global loss of biodiversity and the fact that several drugs and pesticides become obsolete, there is an urgent need to increase sampling and research ...

Cryptic species in the Andean hemiparasite Quinchamalium chilense (Schoepfiaceae: Santalales)

Systematics and Biodiversity, 2017
The integration of different characters (e.g. morphological, ecological, and molecular) is now recognized as important in species delimitation.

A new subspecies of Jodina rhombifolia (Santalales: Cervantesiaceae), with taxonomical considerations

Phytotaxa, 2019
The monotypic genus Jodina is endemic from central to south-eastern South America, where it grows from southern Bolivia and Brazil, Uruguay, to northern and central Argentina. The only species included in the genus is Jodina rhombifolia, a small hemiparasitic tree about 4–8 m high that is characteristic of the chacoan environments of the Neotropical ...

DEVELOPMENT, TAXONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE AND ECOLOGICAL ROLE OF THE CUTICULAR EPITHELIUM IN THE SANTALALES

IAWA Journal, 2003
All genera in the mistletoe family Viscaceae develop a secondary protective covering, the cuticular epithelium, that replaces the epidermis. The cuticular epithelium also occurs in the Eremolepidaceae and some genera within the related family Santalaceae. This secondary covering, unlike the periderm, lacks lenticels or their functional equivalent.

Aetanthus confusus, a new species of Loranthaceae (Santalales) from the Colombian Andes

Phytotaxa
Aetanthus confusus, a new species of hemiparasite from the northern part of the Eastern Cordillera of Colombia, is described and illustrated. This species can be recognized by the combination of percurrent branches, stems trigonous, becoming pseudo-quadrangular at maturity, oblanceolate to lanceolate leaf blades with an obtuse or acute apex, and ...
