Water, mineral nutrient and hormone flows and exchanges in the hemiparasitic association between root hemiparasite Rhinanthus minor and the host Hordeum vulgare
Summary Using the facultative root hemiparasite Rhinanthus minor and Hordeum vulgare as a host, several aspects of water relations, the flows and partitioning of mineral nutrients, the flows, depositions and metabolism of abscisic acid (ABA) and zeatin type cytokinins (zeatin Z, zeatin riboside ZR, …

Bridging the physiology and ecology of hemiparasitic plants
… ecological roles in their natural communities. Hemiparasites, parasitic plants that can photosynthesize, both compete with and parasitize host plants, simultaneously acting as producers and consumers. Hemiparasites often disproportionately parasitize certain species in a community, changing the …

Impacts of hemiparasitic plants on the vegetation and biogeochemical cycling in two contrasting semi-natural grassland types
… litter effects. The drainage of resources by the hemiparasite suppresses preferred host species to the benefit of non-host species. On the other hand, hemiparasitic litter inputs enhance nutrient cycling with indirect positive effects on both host and non-host. When parasitism effects dominate, …

Plasticity of Primary Metabolism in Parasitic Orobanchaceae
… Phelipanche aegyptiaca and the facultative hemiparasite Triphysaria versicolor. First, metabolite profiles of these parasites and their hosts were compared during the key life stages before and after haustorial attachment. Second, the impact of specific variations in host metabolism was …
