Microbes and metabolites of a plant-parasite interaction: Deciphering the ecology of Tetrastigma host choice in the world’s largest parasitic flower, Rafflesia

Rafflesia, known for producing the world’s largest flowers, is a holoparasite found only in Southeast Asia's rapidly diminishing tropical forests. Completely dependent on its Tetrastigma host plants, Rafflesia grows covertly within its host until flowering, but the ecological factors driving ho...
