Plastic Responses Contribute to Explaining Altitudinal and Temporal Variation in Potential Flower Longevity in High Andean Rhodolirion montanum. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2016 The tendency for flower longevity to increase with altitude is believed by many alpine ecologists to play an important role in compensating for low pollination rates at high altitudes due to cold and variable weather conditions.

Effect of ethanol on the longevity and abscission of bougainvillea flower [PDF]
Maejo International Journal of Science and Technology, 2007 The experiment was carried out to study the effect of different concentrations of ethanol on bougainvillea flower vase life and delay abscission. Young and fresh flowers were harvested from 4 years bougainvillea trees randomly.

Molecular aspects of flower senescence and strategies to improve flower longevity. [PDF]
Breed Sci, 2018 Flower longevity is one of the most important traits for ornamental plants. Ethylene plays a crucial role in flower senescence in some plant species. In several species that show ethylene-dependent flower senescence, genetic modification targeting genes for ethylene biosynthesis or signaling has improved flower longevity. Although little is known about

Flower Color, Color Stability, and Flower Longevity in Red-flowered Elepidote Rhododendrons [PDF]
HortTechnology, 2017 Red-flowered elepidote rhododendrons ( Rhododendron sp.) are favored by consumers, but cold-hardy red-flowered rhododendrons frequently have blue-red flower hue rather than the preferred red flower hue.

Spatiotemporal Variations in Nectar Robbing and Its Effects on Reproduction in Salvia castanea Diels (Lamiaceae) [PDF]
PlantsNectar robbing typically reduces nectar availability to pollinators, damages flower structure, and/or induces secondary robbing. Consequently, it may reduce pollen deposition and seed set, increase pollination efficiency and outcrossing, and/or not ...
