Pollination mode determines floral scent [PDF]

Biochemical Systematics and Ecology, 2015
The main objective of this study is to determine if the pollination vector influences the potential floral emissions of flowering plants. We hypothesized that flowers pollinated by insects would emit significantly higher amounts of volatile organic compounds (VOCs) and would present a higher diversity of these compounds than flowers pollinated by wind.

Pollinator choice in Petunia depends on two major genetic loci for floral scent production [PDF]

, 2011
SummaryBackgroundDifferences in floral traits, such as petal color, scent, morphology, or nectar quality and quantity, can lead to specific interactions with pollinators and may thereby cause reproductive isolation.
