Circadian rhythms in floral scent emission [PDF]
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]
Abstract 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.

Identification of long non-coding RNAs involved in floral scent of Rosa hybrida [PDF]
Long non-coding RNAs (lncRNAs) were found to play important roles in transcriptional, post-transcriptional, and epigenetic gene regulation in various biological processes. However, lncRNAs and their regulatory roles remain poorly studied in horticultural

Diversity and Distribution of Floral Scent
(Uploaded by Plazi for the Bat Literature Project) A list of 1719 chemical compounds identified from headspace samples of floral scent is presented. The list has been compiled from some 270 published papers, including analyses of 991 species of flowering plants and a few gymnosperms, a sample including seed plants from 90 families and 38 orders.

Reinforced colour preference of parasitoid wasps in the presence of floral scent: a case study of a cross-modal effect [PDF]
We examined the possibility of a cross-modal effect in naïve Cotesia vestalis, a parasitoid wasp of diamondback moth larvae, by using artificial flower models of four colours (blue, green, yellow, and red) in the absence or presence of floral scent ...

The Chemical Diversity of Floral Scent
This chapter reviews the structures and abundances of the chemical compound groups reported in J. T. Knudsen et al. and discusses various aspects of variation in floral scent chemistry. Many floral scent compounds are chiral molecules with one or more asymmetric carbons.

Floral scent is vital for pollinator attraction and varies among and within plant species. However, little is known about how inter-individual variation in floral scent affects the abundance and composition of floral visitor assemblages within ...

Laboratory studies examining aspects of scent marking, traplining and remote detection of reward in the foraging bumblebee. [PDF]
PhDEnergy from food is essential for the survival of all animals. For decades, bumblebees have been used as model organisms for studying animal foraging strategies.

Humans Share More Preferences for Floral Phenotypes With Pollinators Than With Pests
Studies on the selection of floral traits usually consider pollinators and sometimes herbivores. However, humans also exert selection on floral traits of ornamental plants.
