Structural and Immunological Characterization of the Cuscuta pentagona L. Chloroplast
Structural and immunochemical studies were used to determine the photosynthetic potential of the dodder (Cuscuta pentagona) chloroplast. Ultrastructural studies revealed that thylakoid membranes of pre-parasitic phase Cuscuta pentagona are almost all organized into long, overlapping grana stacks of mainly two to five thylakoids with little space between adjacent stacks. Immunoblots reveal chlor...
متن کاملCross-species translocation of mRNA from host plants into the parasitic plant dodder.
An intriguing new paradigm in plant biology is that systemically mobile mRNAs play a role in coordinating development. In this process, specific mRNAs are loaded into the phloem transport stream for translocation to distant tissues, where they may impact on developmental processes. However, despite its potential significance for plant growth regulation, mRNA trafficking remains poorly understoo...
متن کاملVolatile chemical cues guide host location and host selection by parasitic plants.
The importance of plant volatiles in mediating interactions between plant species is much debated. Here, we demonstrate that the parasitic plant Cuscuta pentagona (dodder) uses volatile cues for host location. Cuscuta pentagona seedlings exhibit directed growth toward nearby tomato plants (Lycopersicon esculentum) and toward extracted tomato-plant volatiles presented in the absence of other cue...
متن کاملColonization of dodder, Cuscuta indecora, by 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' and 'Ca. L. americanus'.
Huanglongbing, or citrus greening, threatens the global citrus industry. The presumptive pathogens, 'Candidatus Liberibacter asiaticus' and 'Ca. L. americanus' can be transferred from citrus to more easily studied experimental hosts by using holoparasitic dodder plants. However, the interaction between 'Candidatus Liberibacter' spp. and the dodder has not been studied. We combined quantitative ...
متن کاملInterspecific RNA interference of SHOOT MERISTEMLESS-like disrupts Cuscuta pentagona plant parasitism.
Infection of crop species by parasitic plants is a major agricultural hindrance resulting in substantial crop losses worldwide. Parasitic plants establish vascular connections with the host plant via structures termed haustoria, which allow acquisition of water and nutrients, often to the detriment of the infected host. Despite the agricultural impact of parasitic plants, the molecular and deve...
