Comparative analysis on parasite and host bioactive properties - a Cytinus hypocistis (L.) L. case study
| Resumo: | Cytinus hypocistis (L.) L. is a rootless, stemless, and leafless holoparasite with a vegetative body reduced to an endophytic system that only grows inside the host [1,2]. Although to date, most studies on plant parasitism were focused on nutrient transfer from host to the parasite and the influence of parasites on host plants, a growing number of studies have documented the transfer of non-nutrient molecules. The transference of phytohormones, secondary metabolites, RNAs, and proteins suggests that hosts may significantly impact parasite physiology and ecology [3]. |
