NECTAR PRODUCTION IN SEVERAL Campanula SPECIES (CAMPANULACEAE)
The flowering, nectar production and sugar content were examined in 2012–2013 seasons for three Campanula species (C. persicifolia L., C. glomerata L., C. trachelium L.). The flowers of all studied Campanula spp. are distinctly protandrous; most of them

While a plastic increase in longevity could augment seed production by prolonging the opportunity for pollination, it could also reduce seed production if resources are allocated to floral maintenance rather ...

Floral Longevity and Nectar Secretion of Platanthera chlorantha (Custer) Rchb. (Orchidaceae) [PDF]
Flowering and nectar secretion were studied in Platanthera chlorantha in two years. Nectar was secreted and accumulated in this orchid's spur, originating from part of the labellum. The nectary spur was, on average, 32 mm long. It produced 6.86 micro l nectar in 1999 and 7.84 micro l in 2000.
