A survey of floral traits, breeding systems, floral visitors, and pollination systems of the angiosperms of the Juan Fernández Islands (Chile)

The Botanical Review, 2001
A survey of the reproductive features of the angiosperm flora of the Juan Fernandez Archipelago (Chile) is presented to provide a species-based review of reproduction and pollination, to identify generalizations associated with these systems, to understand the evolution of these features, and to utilize these data to promote conservation.

Pollen Morphology of Crucianella L. (Rubiaceae) Based on Light and Scanning Electron Microscope Data and Implications for Taxonomy

Microscopy Research and Technique, EarlyView.
This study provides the palynological analysis of 12 Crucianella L. taxa using LM and SEM. Variations in pollen size, aperture number, and exine ornamentation were identified as key traits, demonstrating their taxonomic value for distinguishing closely related species and subspecies within the genus. ABSTRACT Crucianella L.

Sensory profiling of South Korean grape wines: a comparison of fast profiling methods and evaluation environments

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND The South Korean wine market has rapidly expanded in recent years; however, the sensory characteristics of domestically produced red wines remain largely unexplored. This study aims to profile the sensory attributes of South Korean red wines and compare the performance of two rapid profiling methods – check‐all‐that‐apply (CATA) and

Bee pollen as functional food and environmental bioindicator: current evidence and future challenges

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract Bee pollen (BP), a plant‐derived product collected by honey bees, is increasingly promoted as a functional food due to its content of proteins, essential amino acids, lipids, vitamins, minerals, and bioactive compounds such as polyphenols and flavonoids.
