What are some adaptations of mistletoe?

Mistletoe has several adaptations that enable it to thrive as a hemiparasitic plant. It has specialized structures called haustoria that penetrate the host plant's tissues to access water and nutrients. Mistletoe also produces green chlorophyll, allowing it to photosynthesize and generate energy independently, albeit it still relies on its host for some resources. Additionally, its sticky berries aid in seed dispersal by birds, which helps the plant spread to new host trees.
