Host-plant recognition by parasitic Scrophulariaceae.
Parasitic plants in the Scrophulariaceae invade the roots of neighboring plants in order to rob them of water and nutrients. A distinctive feature of these parasites is their ability to cue their development to small molecules released by host-plant roots. Evidence is continuing to emerge that parasite perception of host factors occurs via a redox-associated mechanism. Genes predicted to functi...
متن کاملMolecular Parasitic Plant–Host Interactions
Throughout evolution, a wide number of organisms specialized in parasitizing plants. Plants are not exceptions; certain plant species evolved as parasites of their own kind. Parasitic angiosperms evolved at least 12 times and show various lifestyles. For example, facultative parasitic plants can complete their life cycle and produce seeds without hosts, whereas obligate parasitic plants totally...
متن کاملSuppression of host photosynthesis by the parasitic plant Rhinanthus minor.
BACKGROUND AND AIMS Parasitism is well understood to have wide-ranging deleterious effects on host performance in species thus far characterized. Photosynthetic performance reductions have been noted in the Striga-Zea mays association; however, no such information exists for facultative hemiparasitic plants and their hosts, nor are the effects of host species understood. METHODS Chlorophyll f...
متن کاملParasitic plant responses to host plant signals: a model for subterranean plant-plant interactions.
The ability of plants to fulfill nutritional needs by parasitizing neighboring plants has originated several times in angiosperm evolution. Molecular tools are now being exploited to investigate the evolutionary origins of plant parasitism and to dissect the genetic mechanisms governing parasitic plant-host plant interactions. Investigating the nature of signal exchanges between parasitic plant...
متن کاملParasitic manipulation: a social context.
Thomas et al. (2005) conclude their interesting review of parasitic manipulation in an optimistic tone and state that “the study of manipulation is far from being weak”. This serves as a timely antidote to Poulin’s sobering message of a Kuhnian type weakening paradigm (Poulin, 2000). This is not to say that the authors find fault with Poulin’s analyses, but rather they find reasons for optimism...
