Pollinator-mediated selection on the nectar guide phenotype in the Andean monkey flower, Mimulus luteus
(Ecological Society of America, 2003)
Mimulus luteus (Scrophulariaceae) is a perennial herb occurring in the South
American Andes that shows a wide variation in the size and shape of a red spot on the
lower lobe of the yellow flower. We describe the preference ...
The Saw-billed Hermit Ramphodon Naevius And Its Flowers In Southeastern Brazil
(Springer-Verlag, 1995)
Teasing out the functional groups of oil-collecting bees in the light of the pollination of Nierembergia flowers
(Springer, 2021-08)
Pollination interactions between plants bearing oil-flowers and oil-collecting bees are regarded as specialized, and within the major group of bees,oil-collecting bees are considered a special functional group of pollinators, ...
Pollen and nectar as a reward in the basal epidendroid Psilochilus modestus (Orchidaceae : Triphoreae): A study of floral morphology, reproductive biology and pollination strategy
(Elsevier Gmbh, Urban & Fischer VerlagJenaAlemanha, 2008)
Reproductive Biology
(Cambridge University Press, 2017)
The Juan Fernández flora is not large. It is notable in terms of the proportion of endemics per unit area (the greatest for any island archipelago; Lowry, 2009), and for unusual species (e.g., Lactoris and the many unusual ...
Nectar guide fluctuating asymmetry does not relate to female fitness in Mimulus luteus
(2004)
Most studies assessing the importance of developmental instability of floral characters for pollinator visits and plant fitness have focused on the fluctuating asymmetry (FA) of the corolla phenotype. The importance of ...
Nectar secretion dynamic links pollinator behavior to consequences for plant reproductive success in the ornithophilous mistletoe Psittacanthus robustus
(Wiley, 2014-05)
The mistletoe Psittacanthus robustus was studied as a model to link flower phenology and nectar secretion strategy to pollinator behaviour and the reproductive consequences for the plant. The bright-coloured flowers presented ...
Onion (Allium cepa L.) hybrid seed production: Sugar content variation during the flowering period
(Crop Science Society of America, 2021-07)
Honeybees (Apis mellifera L.) are the most used pollinators for onion (Allium cepa L.) seed production. Two types of onion varieties are mainly grown worldwide: hybrids and open pollination (OP) cultivars. Although hybrids ...
Floral scent evolution in the genus jaborosa (Solanaceae): Influence of ecological and environmental factors
(MDPI AG, 2021-08)
Floral scent is a key communication channel between plants and pollinators. However,the contributions of environment and phylogeny to floral scent composition remain poorly understood. In this study, we characterized ...
Generalized pollination system: are floral traits adapted to different pollinators?
(Kluwer Academic Publishers, 2014)
Flowers that are pollinated both during the day and at night could exhibit two different groups of pollinators and produce two different sets of attractants and rewards. We explored the patterns of emission of flower scents ...
