Chemical and Sensorial Characterization of Scented and Non-Scented Alstroemeria Hybrids

Horticulturae, 2022
Floral scent plays an important ecological role attracting pollinators. Its composition has been elucidated for a vast diversity of species and is dominated by volatile organic compounds (VOCs) such as monoterpenoids, sesquiterpenoids, phenylpropanoids ...

The Similarity of Floral Scent Composition in Two Breynia Species Pollinated by the Same Host-Specific Epicephala Moth

Diversity, 2022
Floral scent has been thought to play a critical role in the obligate pollination–seed consumption mutualism between Breynia (Phyllanthaceae) species and Epicephala moths. The two closely related Breynia species, B. fruticosa and B.

Dependency on floral resources determines the animals’ responses to floral scents [PDF]

Plant Signaling & Behavior, 2010
Animal-pollinated angiosperms either depend on cross-pollination or may also reproduce after self-pollination - the former are thus obligately, the latter facultatively dependent on the service of animal-pollinators. Analogously, flower visitors either solely feed on floral resources or complement their diet with these, and are hence dependent or not ...

Epiphytic Bacteria Alter Floral Scent Emissions [PDF]

Journal of Chemical Ecology, 2017
Floral scents are key mediators of biotic interactions between flowers and various organisms such as pollinators, antagonistic animals and bacteria. It has been shown that emissions of floral volatiles are influenced by interactions with other organisms at the levels of roots, leaves and flowers. However, it is largely unknown whether and how epiphytic

Floral Scents of a Deceptive Plant Are Hyperdiverse and Under Population-Specific Phenotypic Selection

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Floral scent is a key mediator in plant-pollinator interactions. However, little is known to what extent intraspecific scent variation is shaped by phenotypic selection, with no information yet in deceptive plants.

The Convergent Evolution of Hummingbird Pollination Results in Repeated Floral Scent Loss Through Gene Downregulation. [PDF]

Mol Biol Evol
The repeated evolution of the same trait in different lineages provides powerful natural experiments to study the phenotypic and genotypic predictability of trait gain and loss.

Identity and localization of floral scent components in an androdioecious species, Chionanthus retusus (Oleaceae)

Journal of Asia-Pacific Biodiversity, 2020
Chionanthus retusus Lindl. & Paxton (Oleaceae) is an androdioecious species, in which male individuals coexist with hermaphroditic individuals. Even though the floral scent dimorphism of dioecious taxa has been reported elsewhere, little is known ...

Floral to green: mating switches moth olfactory coding and preference [PDF]

, 2012
Mating induces profound physiological changes in a wide range of insects, leading to behavioural adjustments to match the internal state of the animal.

Transcriptome analysis of thermogenic Arum concinnatum reveals the molecular components of floral scent production [PDF]

, 2015
Several plant species can generate enough heat to increase their internal floral temperature above ambient temperature. Among thermogenic plants, Arum concinnatum shows the highest respiration activity during thermogenesis.

Interspecific and Intersexual Differences in the Chemical Composition of Floral Scent in Glochidion Species (Phyllanthaceae) in South China

Journal of Chemistry, 2015
Plants of the Glochidion (Phyllanthaceae) genus are pollinated exclusively by host-specific Epicephala (Gracillariidae) moths. Floral scent has been thought to play key role in the obligate pollination mutualism between Glochidion plants and Epicephala ...
