Haustoria

This means that although makes all or some of its own food (depending on the species) from the sun like other green plants, mistletoe sends root-like structures called haustoria down through the bark into the vascular tissue of its host plant. ❋ Unknown (2009)

The causal agents of rusts and powdery mildew disease develop specialized nutrition sucking devices named 'haustoria' ❋ Sumanti Gupta Et Al. (2010)

It has no roots, instead attaching itself to its host tree with sucker-like organs called haustoria, through which it draws out water and nutrients. ❋ Ewillett (2007)

Try to loosen its hold on the support it is climbing up, and the secret of its guilt is out at once; for no honest vine is this, but a parasite, a degenerate of the lowest type, with numerous sharp suckers (haustoria) penetrating the bark of its victim, and spreading in the softer tissues beneath to steal all their nourishment. ❋ Neltje Blanchan (1891)

Callose encapsulation of haustoria occurring in incompatibility reactions between resistant hosts and pathogens prevent the pathogen's nutrient uptake. ❋ Sumanti Gupta Et Al. (2010)

Conversely, in the case of compatible reactions between susceptible hosts and pathogens, β, 1-3 glucanase-induced callose degradation facilitates the absorption of nutrients by haustoria and promotes growth and sporulation ❋ Sumanti Gupta Et Al. (2010)

Voegele RT, Struck C, Hahn M, Mendgen K (2001) The role of haustoria in sugar supply during infection of broad bean by rust fungus ❋ Sumanti Gupta Et Al. (2010)

Having no roots of their own, they produce structures called "sinkers" and "haustoria" that penetrate the host's tissue. ❋ Unknown (2009)

Fifteen genes were predicted to be proteins secreted from Pst haustoria. ❋ Chuntao Yin (2009)

A total of 5,126 EST sequences of high quality were generated from haustoria of Pst, from which 287 contigs and 847 singletons were derived. ❋ Chuntao Yin (2009)

Some genes involved in virulence in other rust fungi have been found to be specifically expressed in haustoria. ❋ Chuntao Yin (2009)

Therefore, the objective of this study was to generate a cDNA library to characterize genes expressed in haustoria of Pst. Results ❋ Chuntao Yin (2009)
