Other claims from this paper (15)
- Observation Nine orders of parasitic plants in Colombia comprise 17 families, 44 genera and 246 species.
- Observation Colombian parasitic flora includes 37 facultative and 187 obligate hemiparasites.
- Observation Colombian parasitic flora includes 19 holoexoparasites and three holoendoparasites.
- Observation One genus and 69 species are endemic to Colombia.
- Association Endemism falls with elevation from 26 species below 1000 m to one above 4000 m.
- Mechanism Andean uplift likely prompted speciation in the named genera.
- Observation The Andean Region contains 169 parasitic species.
- Observation The Orinoco Region contains 29 parasitic species.
- Observation Several parasitic genera prefer Caribbean dry forests, thickets and coastal vegetation.
- Observation Introduced Orobanche minor is a potential crop weed at 2500–3200 m.
- Observation Cassytha and Cuscuta share obligate twining stem holoparasitism.
- Observation The listed lineages have root holoexoparasitism.
- Observation The listed lineages show obligate root hemiparasitism.
- Observation Holoendoparasitism occurs only in Apodanthaceae.
- Observation Root facultative hemiparasitism is restricted to Orobanchaceae.
