The Floral Nectary of Hymenaea stigonocarpa (Fabaceae, Caesalpinioideae): Structural Aspects During Floral Development [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2007 Considering that few studies on nectary anatomy and ultrastructure are available for chiropterophilous flowers and the importance of Hymenaea stigonocarpa in natural 'cerrado' communities, the present study sought to analyse the structure and cellular modifications that take place within its nectaries during the different stages of floral development ...

THE FLORAL AND EXTRA‐FLORAL NECTARIES OF PASSIFLORA. II. THE EXTRA‐FLORAL NECTARY
American Journal of Botany, 1982Extra‐floral nectaries of nine species of Passiflora were studied with light and electron microscopy prior to and during secretion. There is no evidence of ER or Golgi participation in the secretion of nectar. The vascular tissue supplying the nectary is characterized by companion and phloem parenchyma cells which are usually larger than the sieve ...

Petals are important floral organs that exhibit considerable morphological diversity in terms of colour, shape, and size. The varied morphologies of mature petals can be linked to developmental differences. The petals of Berberidaceae (a core group of Ranunculales) range from flat sheets to complex structures with nectaries, but studies on petal ...

The floral nectaries in theIrvingiaceae
Plant Systematics and Evolution, 1992TheIrvingiaceae generally possess large intrastaminal receptacular disc nectaries of the mesenchymatic histo-type, which receive numerous small phloematic bundles directly from the central stele. The non-glandular epidermis bears some 10 to 15 strictly localized stomata that are deeply sunken in the parenchyma.
