The Campsis-Icterus association as a model system for avian nectar-robbery studies

open access: yesScientific Reports, 2022
Avian nectar-robbing is common in some floras but its impact on plant-pollinator mutualisms, flowering phenology, and the evolution of floral traits remains largely unexplored.

Evolution of Floral Nectaries in Iridaceae

open access: yesAnnals of the Missouri Botanical Garden, 2003
New data on nectaries in Iridaceae are presented in combination with a literature review, in the context of systematics and pollination biology. Iridaceae are a highly diverse family with respect to nectar production, reflecting the wide range of pollination syndromes within the family.

The position and structure of the nectary in spring heath (Erica carnea L.) flowers

open access: yesActa Agrobotanica, 2012
Ecological traits of Erica carnea L. flowers and the morphology of floral nectaries were investigated using stereoscopic, light and scanning electron microscopy. The nectary in the flowers of Erica carnea is located in the basal part of the ovary.
