Pollinator and Herbivore Attraction to Cucurbita Floral Volatiles
Mutualists and antagonists may place conflicting selection pressures on plant traits. For example, the evolution of floral traits is typically studied in the context of attracting pollinators, but traits may incur fitness costs if they are also attractive to antagonists.

Floral volatiles: from biosynthesis to function
Plant, Cell and Environment, 2014AbstractFloral volatiles have attracted humans' attention since antiquity and have since then permeated many aspects of our lives. Indeed, they are heavily used in perfumes, cosmetics, flavourings and medicinal applications. However, their primary function is to mediate ecological interactions between flowers and a diverse array of visitors, including ...

Variation and Natural Heritability of Blueberry Floral Volatiles
Journal of Agricultural and Food Chemistry, 2023Vaccinium corymbosum (highbush blueberry) in British Columbia relies on honeybee pollination for a reliable fruit set. As floral volatiles may help explain pollinator preference for blueberry, we surveyed components of variation for volatiles using gas chromatography-mass spectrometry (GC/MS).

Emission of floral volatiles from Mahonia japonica (Berberidaceae)
Phytochemistry, 2002Flowering Mahonia japonica plants were subjected to controlled environments and the floral volatiles emitted from whole racemes (laterals) were trapped by Porapak Q adsorbent and analysed by GC-FID. An experiment with photoperiods of 6 and 9 h at constant temperature (10+/-1 degrees C) demonstrated that photoperiod was the stimulus for enhanced ...

The defensive function of a pollinator‐attracting floral volatile
Functional Ecology, 2019AbstractBenzyl acetone (4‐phenylbutan‐2‐one; BA), the dominant floral fragrance of the wild tobaccoNicotiana attenuata, is known to attract night‐time pollinators, such asManduca sextahawkmoths. For this pollinator, BA is not only essential for the pollen transport between conspecific plants, but also for the moth’s short‐distance handling of flowers ...

Phytochemistry, 1987
Abstract Floral fragrances in four species of Actaea (Ranunculaceae) and a hybrid were studied by GC-MS. They consist primarily of 10–15 closely related monoterpenes, and differ quantitatively between species. In order to separate the volatiles actually produced by the flower, parallel collections were made from inflorescence and vegetative parts ...

Floral volatiles controlling ant behaviour
Functional Ecology, 2009Summary1. Ants show complex interactions with plants, both facultative and mutualistic, ranging from grazers through seed predators and dispersers to herders of some herbivores and guards against others. But ants are rarely pollinators, and their visits to flowers may be detrimental to plant fitness.2.

Pollination features and floral volatiles of Gymnospermium scipetarum (Berberidaceae)
Journal of Plant Research, 2018The discovery of few isolated populations of Gymnospermium scipetarum (since now considered as an amphi-Adriatic endemic) in the S-Apennines prompted to investigate, also for conservation purposes, some aspects of its reproductive biology. We aim: (1) to determine if insects play an important role in pollination; (2) to describe the pollinator ...
