dc.description.abstractConopholis americana (L.) Wallroth (Orobanchaceae) is a perennial achlorophyllous holoparasite of Quercus spp. The mature plant consists of a perennial underground tubercle attached to a young mycorrhizal root of the host. Variously described as a gall derived from host plant tissue and as parasite stem tissue, the tubercle is invaded by a ""placenta-like outgrowth of the host xylem"", which reticulates through the tubercle and forms connections with the Conopholis vascular tissue. This is presumably a conduit for the passage of nutrients and water to the parasite, for it forms no roots. ...en_US
