A wide range of plant parasitic nematodes have been reported associated with cassava worldwide.

Parasitic organisms range from the macroscopic mistletoe, a parasitic plant, to microscopic internal parasites such as cholera.

Parasitism has evolved only nine times in the plant kingdom ; of those, the parasitic mistletoe habit has evolved independently five times: Misodendraceae, Loranthaceae, and Santalaceae, including the former separate families Eremolepidaceae and Viscaceae.

He compared the parasitic nature of the mistletoe plant to that of cancer, and believed that cancer represents a faltering of the body's spiritual defenses.

Examples of such interactions include a cell being host to a virus, a legume plant hosting helpful nitrogen-fixing bacteria, and animals as hosts to parasitic worms, e. g. nematodes.

** Trombidiformes – plant parasitic mites ( spider mites, peacock mites, gall mites, red-legged earth mites, etc.

Other organisms that might merit the term include certain Pteromalid gall wasps that abort host plant inflorescences, seed weevils, certain plants largely regarded as parasitic, and certain bacteria and viruses ( e. g., bacteriophages ), in relationships where the beneficiaries obligately destroy their hosts.

Stakman, in his speech titled " These Shifty Little Enemies that Destroy our Food Crops ", discussed the manifestation of the plant disease rust, a parasitic fungus that feeds on phytonutrients in wheat, oat, and barley crops across the U. S. He had discovered that special plant breeding methods created plants resistant to rust.

Species more or less completely parasitic include the leafless quintral, Tristerix aphyllus, which lives deep inside the sugar-transporting tissue of a spiny cactus, appearing only to show its tubular red flowers, and the genus Arceuthobium ( dwarf mistletoe ; Santalaceae ) which has reduced photosynthesis ; as an adult, it manufactures only a small proportion of the sugars it needs from its own photosythesis but as a seedling it actively photosynthesizes until a connection to the host is established.

Modern druids focus on the parasitic habitat on oak being the definer of a sacred mistletoe, and use Phoradendron flavescens as well as other mistletoe species.

This makes it disperse the parasitic mistletoe locally unlike the other species.

It usually occurs following a viral infection but may appear following vaccination ( although there is no causal evidence linking vaccination to ADEM ), bacterial or parasitic infection, or even appear spontaneously.

Unlike feces, urine doesn't attract disease-spreading flies ( such as house flies or blow flies ), and it doesn't contain the most hardy of pathogens, such as parasitic worm eggs.

* Shrinking everything ( a " photomask shrink "), resulting in the same number of transistors on a smaller die, improves performance ( smaller transistors switch faster ), reduces power ( smaller wires have less parasitic capacitance ) and reduces cost ( more CPUs fit on the same wafer of silicon ).

However real inductors have resistance ( due to the resistance of the wire and losses in core material ), and parasitic capacitance ( due to the electric field between the turns of wire which are at slightly different potentials ).

This was due to the parasitic capacitance between the plate ( the amplifier's output ) and the control grid ( the amplifier's input ), known as the Miller capacitance.

Most crustaceans are free-living aquatic animals, but some are terrestrial ( e. g. woodlice ), some are parasitic ( e. g. Rhizocephala, fish lice, tongue worms ) and some are sessile ( e. g. barnacles ).

In the Strepsiptera ( small insects parasitic on bees, wasps and cockroaches ), the forewings evolved into halteres, while in the Diptera ( flies, mosquitoes and gnats ), the hindwings changed into halteres.

* Sucker ( parasitic worms anatomy ), an attachment organ of parasitic worms

The Pucciniomycotina includes the rust fungi, the insect parasitic / symbiotic genus Septobasidium, a former group of smut fungi ( in the Microbotryomycetes, which includes mirror yeasts ), and a mixture of odd, infrequently seen or seldom recognized fungi, often parasitic on plants.

In large part, this is because the tiny flowers forming the umbels, are perfectly suited for ladybugs, parasitic wasps, and predatory flies, which actually drink nectar when not reproducing.

There are a few marine and parasitic forms, including the species Naegleria fowleri, which can become pathogenic in humans and is often fatal.

* Honeycomb coils: To reduce proximity effect and parasitic capacitance, multilayer RF coils are wound in patterns in which successive turns are not parallel but crisscrossed at an angle ; these are often called honeycomb or basket-weave coils.

In traditional zoology texts, Platyhelminthes are divided into Turbellaria, which are mostly nonparasitic animals such as planarians, and three entirely parasitic groups: Cestoda, Trematoda and Monogenea ; however, since the turbellarians have since been proven not to be monophyletic, this classification is now deprecated.

* Plasmodiophorids ( Order Plasmodiophorida ): parasitic protists which belong to the super group Rhizaria.

Another reason for dropping numbers are the introduction of non-native species, such as the " parasitic " cowbird, which steals the nests of other birds to use as its own.

A parasitic relationship is one in which one member of the association benefits while the other is harmed.

This is a beam antenna which for a given boom length gives a higher gain than a Yagi antenna, it is a log-periodic where only two elements are driven with a series of parasitic elements ( directors ) in front of the smaller of the two driven elements.

In telecommunications and radar, a planar array is an antenna in which all of the elements, both active and parasitic, are in one plane.

Acanthocephala ( Greek,, thorn +,, head ) is a phylum of parasitic worms known as acanthocephalans, thorny-headed worms, or spiny-headed worms, characterized by the presence of an evertable proboscis, armed with spines, which it uses to pierce and hold the gut wall of its host.

The majority of crustaceans are also motile, moving about independently, although a few taxonomic units are parasitic and live attached to their hosts ( including sea lice, fish lice, whale lice, tongue worms, and Cymothoa exigua, all of which may be referred to as " crustacean lice "), and adult barnacles live a sessile life – they are attached headfirst to the substrate and cannot move independently.

This was revised in 1983 by Crick and Mitchison's " reverse learning " theory, which states that dreams are like the cleaning-up operations of computers when they are off-line, removing ( suppressing ) parasitic nodes and other " junk " from the mind during sleep.

An alternative, which provides good quality sound without inductors ( which are prone to parasitic coupling, are expensive, and may have significant internal resistance ) is to employ bi-amplification with active RC filters or active digital filters with separate power amplifiers for each loudspeaker.

The Intestina group encompassed various parasitic animals, among them the hagfish, which Linnaeus would have found in dead fish.
