Efficiency of Sodium and Calcium Chloride in Conferring Cross-Tolerance to Water Deficit in Periwinkle

open access: yesHorticulturae, 2022
The potential of using pre-stress NaCl or CaCl2 applications to confer a cross-tolerance to a water deficit was evaluated in periwinkle. The plants initially received five applications of NaCl (0, 30 and 50 mM), or CaCl2 (15 and 25 mM) via irrigation ...

Evidence for a Cost of Increased Floral Longevity in Female and Hermaphrodite Lobelia siphilitica (Campanulaceae)

open access: yesInternational Journal of Plant Sciences, 2022
Premise of research. Plants could respond to declines in pollination services by delaying floral senescence and thus increasing floral longevity. 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]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2003
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.
