Floral scent chemistry of mangrove plants
Journal of Plant Research, 2002The flowers of mangrove plants are pollinated by a variety of pollinators including birds, bats, and insects. This study analyzed the floral scent chemistry of mangroves on Iriomote Island (located near Taiwan) including Bruguiera gymnorrhiza (L.) Lamk.

The involvement of a floral scent in plant-honeybee interaction
The Science of Nature, 2022Volatile odors from flowers play an important role in plant-pollinator interaction. The honeybee is an important generalist pollinator of many plants. Here, we explored whether any components of the odors of a range of honeybee-pollinated plants are commonly involved in the interaction between plants and honeybees.

Diversity of floral scent of tulips
Acta Horticulturae, 2019Tulips have a variety of floral scents. Although the charm of tulip is a variety of colours and shapes, there are a few fragrant cultivars. When you smell the tulip scent well, you can feel various scents such as citrus-like, honey-like, green-like. We selected 86 cultivars of tulip that have characteristics floral odor.

Nutrient availability affects floral scent much less than other floral and vegetative traits in Lithophragma bolanderi [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2017 Background and aimsMany plant-pollinator interactions are mediated by floral scents that can vary among species, among populations within species and even among individuals within populations.

Floral scent and intrafloral scent differentiation inMoneses andPyrola (Pyrolaceae)
Plant Systematics and Evolution, 1991Floral scent was collected by headspace methods from intact flowers, petals, and stamens of four species ofPyrolaceae. The scent samples were analyzed by coupled gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC-MS). The floral scent inPyrola spp. is differentiated into a characteristic petal scent—phenyl propanoids and a characteristic stamen scent—methoxy ...

Nocturnal Bees are Attracted by Widespread Floral Scents
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2012Flower localization in darkness is a challenging task for nocturnal pollinators. Floral scents often play a crucial role in guiding them towards their hosts. Using common volatile compounds of floral scents, we trapped female nocturnal Megalopta-bees (Halictidae), thus uncovering olfactory cues involved in their search for floral resources.

As with nearly all living creatures, humans have always been attracted and intrigued by floral scents. Yet, while we have been manufacturing perfumes for at least 5000 years to serve a myriad of religious, sexual, and medicinal purposes, until very recently, the limitation of our olfactory faculty has greatly hindered our capacity to clearly and ...

Antennal Responses to Floral Scents in the Butterfly Heliconius melpomene
Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2003Floral scent, together with visual floral cues, are important signals to adult butterflies searching for food-rewarding plants. To identify which compounds in a floral scent are more attractive and, thus, of biological importance to foraging butterflies, we applied electrophysiological methods.
