THE ROLE OF COLORED ACCESSORY BRACTS IN THE REPRODUCTIVE BIOLOGY OFLAVANDULA STOECHAS [PDF]
This study investigates the role played by showy structures in the reproduction of Lavandula stoechas L. (Lamiaceae), a self-compatible Mediterranean shrub with compact, head-like inflorescences that are terminated by a tuft of conspicuous pink bracts. Pollinator visitation rates to plants with bracts correlated positively with that of paired, treated ...
