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 ...

Large flowers can be short‐lived: Insights from a high Andean cactus
Ecology and Evolution, 2022 Long‐lived and large flowers signify high floral maintenance costs. Species of arid/semiarid climates with large flowers are expected to have short flower life spans and pollination‐induced flower longevity in order to curb high floral water and other ...

Occurrence and Prevention of Delayed Autonomous Selfing in Salvia umbratica (Lamiaceae)
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Delayed autonomous selfing (DAS) provides reproductive assurance under conditions of pollinator and/or pollen-limitation. Few plant species have been investigated to determine if DAS is terminated when a flower is sufficiently pollinated by a pollen ...
