Sexual Differences in Eurya loquaiana Dunn Floral Scent and How Pollinators Respond [PDF]
Plants, 2022 Eurya plants are usually dioecious or subdioecious with small fragrant flowers. Here, we investigate the floral scent components of the subdioecious species Eurya loquaiana Dunn and how floral scent affects pollinators.

Circadian rhythms in floral scent emission [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2016 To successfully recruit pollinators, plants often release attractive floral scents at specific times of day to coincide with pollinator foraging. This timing of scent emission is thought to be evolutionarily beneficial to maximize resource efficiency ...

Direct Effects of Polyploidization on Floral Scent. [PDF]
J Chem EcolAbstract Polyploidy is an important driver of the evolution and diversification of flowering plants. Several studies have shown that established polyploids differ from diploids in floral morphological traits and that polyploidization directly affects these traits.

Deceptive Cypripedium calceolus shares more floral scent compounds with co-flowering rewarding species than those species share among each other [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant ScienceThe vast majority of flowering plants depend on animal pollinators for sexual reproduction. These plants usually provide a reward, such as nectar and/or pollen, to their pollinators, and floral scent is often key to attract them. Some plants, however, do
