Tesitel J, Li A, Knotkova K, McLellan R, Bandaranayake P, Watson D
Plant Physiol . 2021 Apr; 185(4):1309-1324. PMID: 33793868
Parasitic plants are mostly viewed as pests. This is caused by several species causing serious damage to agriculture and forestry. There is however much more to parasitic plants than presumed...
2.
Li A, Smith F, Smith S, Guan K
Funct Plant Biol . 2020 Jun; 39(9):784-794. PMID: 32480829
Parasitic biology of Pedicularis L. (Orobanchaceae) has been underinvestigated despite its wide distribution and potential ecological significance. To better understand the parasitic aspects of the root hemiparasites, host-parasite interactions were...
3.
Li A, Mao P, Li Y
Plant Divers . 2020 Jan; 41(5):347-351. PMID: 31934680
(Olacaceae) is a valued tree species, mostly because its seeds have high precious fatty acid content (particularly nervonic acid). However, seedling mortality rates are often high and regeneration of this...

Sui X, Zhang T, Tian Y, Xue R, Li A
New Phytol . 2018 Aug; 221(1):470-481. PMID: 30078224
Despite their ubiquitous distribution and significant ecological roles, soil microorganisms have long been neglected in investigations addressing parasitic plant-host interactions. Because nutrient deprivation is a primary cause of host damage...

Li W, Sui X, Kuss P, Liu Y, Li A, Guan K
PLoS One . 2016 Nov; 11(11):e0165700. PMID: 27806090
Quaternary climate fluctuations have profoundly affected the current distribution patterns and genetic structures of many plant and animal species in the Qinghai-Tibetan Plateau (QTP) and adjacent mountain ranges, e.g. Tianshan...

Yang Y, Qian Z, Li A, Pu C, Liu X, Guan K
Breed Sci . 2016 Jul; 66(3):391-5. PMID: 27436949
Amomum tsaoko is a flexistylous ginger. Flexistyly is a unique floral mechanism promoting outcrossing, which is known only in some species of Zingiberaceae till date. This is a pioneer report...

Sui X, Huang W, Li Y, Guan K, Li A
J Plant Res . 2015 May; 128(4):563-72. PMID: 25956077
Root hemiparasitic plants show optimal growth when attached to a suitable host by abstracting water and nutrients. Despite the fact that damage to host plants in the wild occurs frequently...

Sui X, Li A, Chen Y, Zhuo L, Liu Y
Mycorrhiza . 2013 Oct; 24(3):187-95. PMID: 24077881
Spatial expansion of root hemiparasitic Pedicularis kansuensis in Bayanbulak Grassland of Xinjiang Uygur Autonomous Region (China) has caused great loss of herbage yield and has threatened the local livestock industry....

Li A, Guan K, Stonor R, Smith S, Smith F
Ann Bot . 2013 Aug; 112(6):1089-98. PMID: 23946322
Background And Aims: Because most parasitic plants do not form mycorrhizal associations, the nutritional roles of arbuscular mycorrhizal (AM) fungi in them have hardly been tested. Some facultative root hemiparasitic...

Li A, Li Y, Smith S, Smith F, Guan K
Ann Bot . 2013 Aug; 112(6):1099-106. PMID: 23946321
Background And Aims: Facultative root hemiparasitic plants generally have a wide host range, but in most cases show an obvious host preference. The reasons for the marked difference in growth...
