Proteomic insights into floral biology

Biochimica et Biophysica Acta (BBA) - Proteins and Proteomics, 2016
The flower is the most important biological structure for ensuring angiosperms reproductive success. Not only does the flower contain critical reproductive organs, but the wide variation in morphology, color, and scent has evolved to entice specialized pollinators, and arguably mankind in many cases, to ensure the successful propagation of its species.

Floral Biology and Floral Rewards of Lysimachia (Primulaceae)

American Midland Naturalist, 1983
Field and chemical studies have shown that female bees of the genus Macropis (Melittidae) visit flowers of Lysimachia (Primulaceae) in the New World in order to collect liquids secreted by trichome elaiophores at the bases of the petals and/or anther filaments. The association between the genera is not obligatory on the part of the plants.

Floral biology of Ziziphus mauritiana (Rhamnaceae)

Sexual Plant Reproduction, 2009
Floral development of the synchronous dichogamous species Ziziphus mauritiana, as followed by light and scanning electron microscopy (SEM), was divided into 11 stages using a series of landmark events. Main cellular events happen synchronously in the female and the male structures, such as meiosis in micro- and macrosporocyte cells, tetrad microspore ...

Floral biology ofTrapa natans var.japonica

The Botanical Magazine Tokyo, 1986
The floral behavior and insect visitors ofTrapa natans L. var.japonica Nakai are described. Individual flowers bloom for one day and are visited primarily by Coleoptera and Hemiptera. Exclusion experiments indicate flowers are self- and cross-compatible as well as apomictic. Insect visitors assist in self-pollination as they more within the flower.
