Odor polymorphism in deceptive Amorphophallus species - a review. [PDF]
Plant Signal Behav, 2021 Some plant lineages, such as Araceae and Orchidaceae, have independently evolved deceptive flowers. These exploit the insect’s perception and deceive the insects into believing to have located a suitable opportunity for reproduction. The scent compounds emitted by the flowers are the key signals that dupe the insects, guiding them to the right spots ...

Effects of Reproductive Materials on Growth, Corm Yield, and Glucomannan Content in <i>Amorphophallus bulbifer</i>. [PDF]
Food Sci NutrThis study compares six propagation materials for Amorphophallus bulbifer. One‐year‐old corms propagated from seeds are the optimal propagation material. ABSTRACT Amorphophallus bulbifer, known for its high glucomannan content, has extensive applications and significant economic value. However, the effects of different types of propagation materials on

Comparative analysis of complete chloroplast genome sequences of four major Amorphophallus species. [PDF]
Sci Rep, 2019 AbstractAmorphophallus (Araceae) contains more than 170 species that are mainly distributed in Asia and Africa. Because the bulbs of Amorphophallus are rich in glucomannan, they have been widely used in food, medicine, the chemical industry and so on. To better understand the evolutionary relationships and mutation patterns in the chloroplast genome of
