Flowering Phenology and the Influence of Seasonality in Flower Conspicuousness for Bees
(2021-02-16)
Flowering patterns are crucial to understand the dynamics of plant reproduction and resource availability for pollinators. Seasonal climate constrains flower and leaf phenology, where leaf and flower colors likely differ ...

Color signals of bee-pollinated flowers: the significance of natural leaf background
(2021-05-01)
Premise: Flower color is a primary pollinator attractant and generally adjusted to the cognitive system of the pollinators. The perception of flower color depends on the visual system of pollinators and also on environmental ...
Phenological aspects of flowering and fruiting at the Ecological Station of Paulo de Faria-SP-Brazil
(1997-12-01)
The present work was carried out at 'Estacao Ecologica de Paulo de Faria', north of the state of Sao Paulo, southeast of Brazil (19°55'-19°58'S and 49°31'-49°32'W). The flowering and fruiting phenology of trees, shrubs, ...

Phylogeny determines flower size-dependent sex allocation at flowering in a hermaphroditic family
(2017-11-01)
In animal-pollinated hermaphroditic plants, optimal floral allocation determines relative investment into sexes, which is ultimately dependent on flower size. Larger flowers disproportionally increase maleness whereas ...
The roles of rainfall, soil properties, and species traits in flowering phenology along a savanna-seasonally dry tropical forest gradient
(2017-09-01)
We investigated flowering phenology in a semiarid macroclimate along an environmental gradient encompassing neotropical savanna, transition, and seasonally dry tropical forest (SDTF) areas in the Chapada Diamantina Mountains, ...
Pollen diet assessment and flower association in Melipona orbignyi and recommendations on management and conservation of stingless bees in the Chaco dry forest of South America
(Springer, 2019-08)
Management and conservation of wild pollinators in forests of the Chaco region of South America is of great interest nowadays as they are pollen vectors that improve the reproductive success of many forest species which ...
Plastic Responses Contribute to Explaining Altitudinal and Temporal Variation in Potential Flower Longevity in High Andean Rhodolirion montanum
(Public Library Science, 2016)
The tendency for flower longevity to increase with altitude is believed by many alpine ecologists to play an important role in compensating for low pollination rates at high altitudes due to cold and variable weather ...
