host parasite relationshipsParasitic plantsParasitic weedsphotosynthesisPhotosynthesis is the hallmark of plant life and is the only plastid metabolic process known to be controlled by plastid genes. The complete loss of photosynthetic ability, however, has occurred on several independent occasions in ...
Long-term extensive release of artificially reared populations may potentially pose negative effects on wild populations18. The gene pool of wild populations can be infiltrated by that of the released populations, resulting in outbreeding depression18, which has been found in some plants or animals l...
The fungus Metarhizium brunneum has evolved a remarkable ability to switch between different lifestyles. It develops as a saprophyte, an endophyte establishing mutualistic relationships with plants, or a parasite, enabling its use for the control of inse

For Lewes, the parasite reveals the beauty and interdependence of nature; in environments marked by infinite connection, the parasitic cluster is a "typical form." In George Eliot's darker view, however, the parasite exposes the complex asymmetry inherent to all relationships, especially among ...

50. The experimental manipulation was hypothesized to mimic the process that would occur in nature when the host dies, or when the parasite leaves the living host. Following these findings, it was concluded that the interaction betweenEdwardsiella lineataandM. leidyiis facultative8. Nonetheless, ...
The purpose of this chapter is to provide an overview of the life cycles and evolutionary relationships of these fascinating and unusual plants and also to focus upon those that negatively affect food and fiber crops.DOI: 10.1094/PHI-I-2004-0330-01 被引量: 93 ...
The position of parasitic clades within angiosperm phyl- ogeny has been controversial, and even the higher-level relationships are debated [63-65]. As a consequence, there Table 1 Estimates of branch length for sister clades of parasitic (P) and autotrophic (non-parasitic, NP) plants for ...
1), or from presence/absence of gene families, largely agreed with the expected species and clade relationships, except for a couple of known contentious issues (Supplementary Fig. 3, Supplementary Note 2.2 and Methods). The species in our dataset contained significant novelty in gene content. ...
