Nectar metabolomes contribute to pollination syndromes
Summary ‘Pollination syndromes’, where convergent floral signals reflect selection from a functional pollinator group, are often characterized by physical features, yet floral rewards such as nectar may also reflect selection from pollinators. We asked whether nectar chemistry shows evidence of convergence across functional pollinator groups, i.e.

Flowering profile and ethylene production of a new carnation subspecies 'Mini-tiara'
Ethylene is involved in the senescence of carnation flowers. It is synthesized abundantly after full opening of the flowers and accelerates wilting of petals, which results in withering of the flowers. We investigated the possible involvement of ethylene

Links between the ornamental sector and alien plants in Southern Africa
Short Abstract Given the historical role of the ornamental industry in plant invasions in Southern Africa, we assess how the ornamental sector and practices there relate to alien plants. The sector's operation and gardening practices show different expressions of the typical cultural hybridity of postcolonial states, where alien plants and foreign ...

Abstract Defining species boundaries within plant groups distributed along wide elevational and geographic gradients may lead to unstable taxonomic delimitations using morphological data only. Within the taxonomically challenging genus Dianthus, through an integrative approach we tested the taxonomic value of D.
