Odor polymorphism in deceptiveAmorphophallusspecies - a review [PDF]
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 ...
