Humans Share More Preferences for Floral Phenotypes With Pollinators Than With Pests
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Studies on the selection of floral traits usually consider pollinators and sometimes herbivores. However, humans also exert selection on floral traits of ornamental plants.

Sources of floral scent variation [PDF]
Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2009 Studies of floral scent generally assume that genetic adaptation due to pollinator-mediated natural selection explains a significant amount of phenotypic variance, ignoring the potential for phenotypic plasticity in this trait. In this paper, we assess this latter possibility, looking first at previous studies of floral scent variation in relation to ...

Floral Scents in Bee-Pollinated Buckwheat and Oilseed Rape under a Global Warming Scenario
Insects, 2023 Many wild plants and crops are pollinated by insects, which often use floral scents to locate their host plants. The production and emission of floral scents are temperature-dependent; however, little is known about how global warming affects scent ...
