Extensive plastome reduction and loss of photosynthesis genes in Diphelypaea coccinea, a holoparasitic plant of the family Orobanchaceae

BACKGROUND: Parasitic plants have the ability to obtain nutrients from their hosts and are less dependent on their own photosynthesis or completely lose this capacity. The reduction in plastid genome size and gene content in parasitic plants predominantly results from loss of photosynthetic genes. P...
