The Complete Plastomes of Five Hemiparasitic Plants (Osyris wightiana, Pyrularia edulis, Santalum album, Viscum liquidambaricolum, and V. ovalifolium): Comparative and Evolutionary Analyses Within Santalales [PDF]

Frontiers in Genetics, 2020
Most species of Santalales (the sandalwood order) are hemiparasites, including both facultative and obligate hemiparasites. Despite its rich diversity, only a small fraction of the species in the sandalwood order have sequenced plastomes.

Range and Elevational Shifts of Mistletoes Under Future Climate Change Scenarios. [PDF]

Ecol Evol
Mistletoes 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 ...

The best of two worlds: ecology and evolution of ambophilous plants

Biological Reviews, Volume 98, Issue 2, Page 391-420, April 2023., 2023
ABSTRACT Ambophily, the mixed mode of wind and insect pollination is still poorly understood, even though it has been known to science for over 130 years. While its presence has been repeatedly inferred, experimental data remain regrettably rare. No specific suite of morphological or ecological characteristics has yet been identified for ambophilous ...

Biological Flora of Britain and Ireland: Viscum album

Journal of Ecology, Volume 111, Issue 3, Page 701-739, March 2023., 2023
Mistletoe is a charismatic parasite of tree crowns with a long history of folklore and connections with Christmas celebrations. This, and its need for light, helps explain why it is most common in human‐made habitats across Europe. Once thought to benignly take just water and nutrients from its host it is now known to take carbon as well which can lead
