Phanerogamic parasites are plants that derive nutrients and water from other plants, known as hosts. They belong to the group of parasitic plants, such as mistletoe and dodder, which attach themselves to the host plant to obtain the necessary resources for survival and growth. These parasites have specialized structures, such as haustoria, that allow them to penetrate the host's tissues and extract nutrients.
Plants must make themselves unattractive to parasites by increasing the cost or reducing the benefit to the parasite, often by evolving secondary chemicals.
