Preliminary study of the pollination syndromes in a fragment of the Caatinga, in PE, Brazil

open access: yesBiotemas, 2016
The aim of this study was to preliminarily identify the pollination syndromes of plant species in a fragment of the Caatinga, in the municipality of Serrita, Pernambuco, Brazil. A floristic survey was conducted during March 2014 in a 900 m² area.

Visual attraction cues associated with tachinid pollination: insights from colour variation in Succisella microcephala (Caprifoliaceae)

open access: yesJournal of Pollination Ecology
Pollination syndromes describe convergent floral traits linked to specific pollinator groups. While conceptually useful, the application of this framework to diverse insect assemblages, such as Diptera, remains challenging due to their functional ...

Reproductive Phenology and Pollination Biology of Madhuca Neriifolia in Wet Evergreen Forest of Western Ghats, South India [PDF]

open access: yes, 2013
Pollination syndromes are suites of phenotypic traits hypothesized to reflect convergent adaptations of flowers for pollination by a specific type of animal.

Are there pollination syndromes in the Australian epacrids (Ericaceae: Styphelioideae)? A novel statistical method to identify key floral traits per syndrome [PDF]

open access: yesAnnals of Botany, 2013
Convergent floral traits hypothesized as attracting particular pollinators are known as pollination syndromes. Floral diversity suggests that the Australian epacrid flora may be adapted to pollinator type. Currently there are empirical data on the pollination systems for 87 species (approx. 15 % of Australian epacrids).

Mentalizing difficulties are transdiagnostic and explain links between mental health and neurodevelopmental symptoms and social adjustment in school‐aged children

open access: yesJCPP Advances, EarlyView.
Growing evidence suggests that difficulties reasoning about others' thoughts, feelings and desires (called ‘mentalizing’ or ‘theory of mind’) cut across many mental health and neurodevelopmental conditions but studies have yet to test this claim directly.

Studies on Incompatibility Pollination and Floral Morphological Polymorphism of Carambola (Averrhoa Corambola L) [PDF]

open access: yes, 1998
The objectives of this study were to elucidate the physiological basis of selfincompatibility system and the floral morphological polymorphism in carambola (Averrhoa carambola L.). Within 30 minutes after pollination, pollen degradation and hydration

Necrotising Infundibular Crystalline Folliculitis: A Rare Case With a Microscopic Abundance of Yeasts

open access: yesJEADV Clinical Practice, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT A 66‐year‐old man presented with a 5‐year history of recurrent pruritic, waxy folliculocentric papules on his trunk which worsened during winter and minimally responded to selenium sulphide shampoo and topical corticosteroids. Skin biopsy demonstrated a dilated follicular infundibulum containing abundant yeasts and amorphous material with ...

Trades-offs between pollinator attraction and florivore defense maximize reproductive success in the self-incompatible Rivea ornata (Convolvulaceae)

open access: yesBMC Ecology and Evolution
Background Rivea ornata, a rare species from the morning glory family, exhibits uncommon characteristics compared to other typical morning glories, including nocturnal flowers that fit the classic moth pollination syndrome.

Pollination biology of two Chinese endemic and sympatric Impatiens (Balsaminaceae) species

open access: yesGuangxi Zhiwu
The genus Impatiens exhibits some varied floral features with a dichogamous reproductive system, in which pollination biology plays a key role in speciation and adaptive evolution.

Decrease of sexual organ reciprocity between heterostylous primrose species, with possible functional and evolutionary implications [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Background and Aims Heterostyly is a floral polymorphism that has fascinated evolutionary biologists since Darwin's seminal studies on primroses. The main morphological characteristic of heterostyly is the reciprocal placement of anthers and stigmas in ...
