Calyx and epicalyx morphology in Indian Hibiscus (Malvaceae) and its taxonomic importance

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Hibisceae is one of the largest tribes in Malvaceae, having a diverse floral morphology. The genus Hibiscus shows a wide range of evolutionary patterns in calyx and epicalyx morphology. Genera like Abelmoschus, Azanza, Gossypium, Hibiscus,and Thespesia are separated on the basis of calyx and epicalyx morphology, meaning that the calyx and epicalyx have

The structure of the spur nectary in Dendrobium finisterrae Schltr. (Dendrobiinae, Orchidaceae)

open access: yesActa Agrobotanica, 2012
To date, the structure of the nectary spur of Dendrobium finisterrae has not been studied in detail, and the present paper compares the structural organization of the floral nectary in this species with the spurs of other taxa.

Range‐wide sampling reveals cryptic lineages but largely conserved mycorrhizal associations in the Japanese fairy lantern Thismia kobensis

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
The jewel‐like flowers of Thismia are as rare as they are beautiful, often recorded from only a single site per species. Access to 15 populations of T. kobensis has enabled an uncommon, range‐wide assessment of morphology, genetics, and fungal partners. Our analyses showed that T.

Corona development and floral nectaries of Asclepiadeae (Asclepiadoideae, Apocynaceae) [PDF]

open access: yesActa Botanica Brasilica, 2017
ABSTRACT Flowers of Asclepiadoideae are notable for possessing numerous nectaries and elaborate coronas, where nectar can accumulate but is not necessarily produced. Given the complexity and importance of these structures for reproduction, this study aimed to analyze the ontogeny of the corona, the structure and position of nectaries and the ...

The structure of nectary of Platanthera bifolia L. Orchidaceae

open access: yesActa Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2014
The anatomy and ultrastructure of floral nectary of Platanthera bifolia were studied. The epidermis inside the nectary spur showed characteristic features of secretory tissue. Many cells of this epidermis were protruded forming unicellular hairs.

The shared benefits of fallen fruits: A novel mechanism stabilizing a nursery pollination mutualism between Sambucus and kateretid beetles

open access: yesPLANTS, PEOPLE, PLANET, EarlyView.
Understanding how cooperative interactions remain stable matters for biodiversity because many plants rely on specialist insects that can also impose reproductive costs. We studied the interaction between Sambucus sieboldiana and seed‐consuming Heterhelus beetles through detailed field observations and pollination experiments.
