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

Neglected plant parasites: Mitrastemonaceae

PLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, Volume 5, Issue 1, Page 5-13, January 2023., 2023
Mitrastemonaceae are a remarkable family of parasitic flowering plants. The two species that make up this family have a disjunct distribution and a peculiar appearance. Both are devoid of roots, stems, and regular leaves and live inside the roots of their host plants for most of their life cycle.

Consuming and consumed: Biotic interactions of African mistletoes across different trophic levels

Biotropica, Volume 54, Issue 4, Page 1103-1119, July 2022., 2022
Mistletoes, as perennial hemiparasitic angiosperms that parasitize woody plants, are an important component of the African flora, yet little is known about the composition and function of the organismal communities associated with these plants in Africa.

Differences in the virulence of Sphaeropsis sapinea strains originating from Scots pine and non‐pine hosts

Forest Pathology, Volume 51, Issue 5, October 2021., 2021
Abstract The virulence of 15 endophytic and pathogenic Sphaeropsis sapinea strains was tested towards Scots pine (Pinus sylvestris). Two‐thirds of the strains had been isolated from Scots pines with varying health status: five isolates originated from healthy tissue (endophytic fungal stage) and five from diseased tissue (pathogenic stage).
