- Intervention effect Orobanche infection raised total reducing and total sugar in tomato.
- Intervention effect Orobanche infection raised total reducing and total sugar in mustard.
- Intervention effect Orobanche infection decreased acid-hydrolyzable and total carbohydrates in tomato organs.
- Intervention effect Orobanche infection decreased acid-hydrolyzable and total carbohydrates in mustard organs.
- Mechanism The authors attributed host carbohydrate depletion to predominant hydrolytic activity.
- Intervention effect Infection depressed the sucrose proportion of total sugar in tomato.
- Intervention effect Infection depressed the sucrose proportion of total sugar in mustard.
- Mechanism The authors suggested hydrolysis dominance and slower synthesis explain the lower host sucrose proportion.
- Observation Orobanche had higher acid-hydrolyzable and total carbohydrates than mustard hosts.
- Mechanism The authors interpreted parasite carbohydrate enrichment as high sugar demand.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen fraction proportions did not differ significantly between healthy and infected tomato hosts.
- Intervention effect Nitrogen fraction proportions did not differ significantly between healthy and infected mustard hosts.
- Observation Orobanche had lower total soluble and total nitrogen concentrations than tomato host roots.
- Observation Orobanche had lower total soluble and total nitrogen concentrations than mustard host roots.
