Acta Biológica Colombiana, 1995 The altitudinal distribution of 10 species of hemiparasitic and parasitic plants from 4 families to the Santalalean order has been studied along a transect of 9 Km from Villa de Leiva-Arcabuco road to San Pedro de Iguaque lagoon.

Comparative inflorescence development in selected Andean Santalales [PDF]
American Journal of Botany, 2017 PREMISE OF THE STUDY:Loranthaceae, Santalaceae, and Viscaceae are the most diversified hemiparasitic families of Santalales in the Andes. Their partial inflorescences (PIs) vary from solitary flowers, or dichasia in most Santalales, to congested floral groups along articles in most Viscaceae.

Inflorescence evolution in Santalales: integrating morphological characters and molecular phylogenetics [PDF]
American Journal of Botany, 2019 Premise of the StudyThe sandalwood order (Santalales) includes members that present a diverse array of inflorescence types, some of which are unique among angiosperms. This diversity presents not only interpretational challenges but also opportunities to test fundamental concepts in plant morphology.

Historical biogeography of Loranthaceae (Santalales): Diversification agrees with emergence of tropical forests and radiation of songbirds [PDF]
Molecular Phylogenetics and Evolution, 2018 Coadaptation between mistletoes and birds captured the attention of Charles Darwin over 150 years ago, stimulating considerable scientific research. Here we used Loranthaceae, a speciose and ecologically important mistletoe family, to obtain new insights

Synopsis and Cladistics of the genus Misodendrum (Misodendraceae, Santalales) [PDF]
, 1997 Misodendrum Banks ex DC., exclusively parasitic on Nothofagus (Nothofagacece) and the single representative of the family Misodendracece (Santalales), is a monophyletic group defined by its achlamydeous perianth. It comprises eight species endemic to the

Puzzling parasitic plants: phylogenetics and classification of Santalales revisited [PDF]
AbstractBased on a previously published but realigned matrix for Santalales, we find many relationships that were weakly or unsupported in previous studies are here much better supported, providing a more robust foundation upon which to discuss Santalales classification.

DEVELOPMENT, TAXONOMIC SIGNIFICANCE AND ECOLOGICAL ROLE OF THE CUTICULAR EPITHELIUM IN THE SANTALALES [PDF]
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.

Range and Elevational Shifts of Mistletoes Under Future Climate Change Scenarios. [PDF]
Ecol EvolMistletoes are particularly vulnerable to climate change because of their obligate dependence on host plants. We investigated how climate change will alter the distribution of suitable habitat of Mesoamerican Psittacanthus mistletoes. Species differences were found in distribution with northward and upward shifts accompanied by significant range size ...
