abstract = {A parasitic lifestyle, where plants procure some or all of
their nutrients from other living plants, has evolved
independently in many dicotyledonous plant families and is a
major threat for agriculture globally. Nevertheless, no
genome sequence of a parasitic plant has been reported to
date. Here we describe the genome sequence of the parasitic
field dodder, Cuscuta campestris. The genome contains
signatures of a fairly recent whole-genome duplication and
lacks genes for pathways superfluous to a parasitic
lifestyle. Specifically, genes needed for high
photosynthetic activity are lost, explaining the low
photosynthesis rates displayed by the parasite. Moreover,
several genes involved in nutrient uptake processes from the
soil are lost. On the other hand, evidence for horizontal
gene transfer by way of genomic DNA integration from the
parasite’s hosts is found. We conclude that the parasitic
lifestyle has left characteristic footprints in the C.
campestris genome},
