Evolution of Floral Nectaries in Iridaceae
Annals 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.
