Biology of extrafloral nectaries in Albizzia lebbeck (Mimosaceae)

South African Journal of Botany, 1991
The structure and ecology of extrafloral nectaries in Albizzia lebbeck Benth. were studied. Two flat non-porate nectaries are present on the adaxial surface of each rachis. The sub-secretory zone is parenchymatous and contains starch. Crystals of calcium oxalate of reversible nature and sclereids were observed in the nectaries.

Tree-Dwelling Ants: Contrasting Two Brazilian Cerrado Plant Species without Extrafloral Nectaries

Psyche: A Journal of Entomology, 2012
Ants dominate vegetation stratum, exploiting resources like extrafloral nectaries (EFNs) and insect honeydew. These interactions are frequent in Brazilian cerrado and are well known, but few studies compare ant fauna and explored resources between plant ...

Extrafloral Nectar of Bottle Gourd: Synthesis and Role of Carbohydrates as a Dietary Supplement for Nesidiocoris tenuis Reuter (Heteroptera: Miridae)

Agriculture
Plants can provide natural enemies with alternative food resources that enhance their performance in addition to prey consumption. Extrafloral nectaries attract beneficial insects by supplying nectar in exchange for pest suppression, although other ...

Distribution of Plants with Extrafloral Nectaries in Temperate Communities

American Midland Naturalist, 1980
The abundance of plants with extrafloral nectaries was determined for a series of temperate habitats in Nebraska. Mean cover of plants with extrafloral nectaries was 1.3% in riparian forest understory, 1.8% in virgin deciduous forest understory, 0.0% in tall-grass prairie, and 8.3% in sandhill prairie.
