Parasitic angiosperms: how often and how many?
DL Nickrent - Taxon, 2020 - Wiley Online Library
Angiosperms that morphologically and physiologically attach to other flowering plants by
means of a haustorium have evolved 12 times independently resulting in 292 genera and …

The evolution of parasitism in plants
The multiple independent origins of plant parasitism suggest that numerous ancestral plant
lineages possessed the developmental flexibility to meet the requirements of a parasitic life …

Plastid genomes of seed plants
RK Jansen, TA Ruhlman - Genomics of chloroplasts and mitochondria, 2012 - Springer
The field of comparative plastid genomics has burgeoned during the past decade, largely
due to the availability of rapid, less expensive genome sequencing technologies. Currently …

Extreme reconfiguration of plastid genomes in the angiosperm family Geraniaceae: rearrangements, repeats, and codon usage
Geraniaceae plastid genomes (plastomes) have experienced a remarkable number of
genomic changes. The plastomes of Erodium texanum, Geranium palmatum, and Monsonia …

Large-scale gene losses underlie the genome evolution of parasitic plant Cuscuta australis
Abstract Dodders (Cuscuta spp., Convolvulaceae) are root-and leafless parasitic plants. The
physiology, ecology, and evolution of these obligate parasites are poorly understood. A high …

Footprints of parasitism in the genome of the parasitic flowering plant Cuscuta campestris
A parasitic lifestyle, where plants procure some or all of their nutrients from other living
plants, has evolved independently in many dicotyledonous plant families and is a major …

Green plants that feed on fungi: facts and questions about mixotrophy
MA Selosse, M Roy - Trends in plant science, 2009 - cell.com
Several green, photosynthetic plants in orchids and Ericaceae were recently found to
recover carbon from the mycorrhizal fungi associated with their roots, a dual nutritional …

Detection of the plant parasite Cuscuta reflexa by a tomato cell surface receptor
Parasitic plants are a constraint on agriculture worldwide. Cuscuta reflexa is a stem
holoparasite that infests most dicotyledonous plants. One exception is tomato, which is …

Parasitic plants of the genus Cuscuta and their interaction with susceptible and resistant host plants
B Kaiser, G Vogg, UB Fürst, M Albert - Frontiers in plant science, 2015 - frontiersin.org
By comparison with plant–microbe interaction, little is known about the interaction of
parasitic plants with their hosts. Plants of the genus Cuscuta belong to the family of …
