Floral scent plays an important ecological role attracting pollinators. Its composition has been elucidated for a vast diversity of species and is dominated by volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as monoterpenoids, ...

The main function of floral scent is to attract and guide pollinators, but it is also an important character in the ornamental plant industry. Several studies have considered the chemical evaluation of floral scent during ...

Floral scent plays a crucial role in the interactions between plants and their environment, and is composed of several to many volatile compounds. From the aesthetic point of view, floral scent is one of the characters ...

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 ...

Floral scent plays an important role in attracting and guiding pollinators and is composed of a bouquetof volatile organic compounds (VOCs). Alstroemeria is a commercially important cut flower, howeverbreeding efforts have ...

Floral signaling, especially through floral scent, is often highly complex, and little is known about the molecular mechanisms and evolutionary causes of this complexity. In this study, we focused on the evolution of “floral ...

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 ...
