REVISION OF MEZIA (MALPIGHIACEAE) [PDF]
Edinburgh Journal of Botany, 2018 The Neotropical genus Mezia (Malpighiaceae) comprises 15 species of lianas (except M. huberi W.R.Anderson, a shrub or small tree). All have multibranched, densely brown-sericeous inflorescences with the ultimate unit a 4-flowered umbel of bilaterally symmetrical flowers.

Similar genetic mechanisms underlie the parallel evolution of floral phenotypes. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2012 The repeated origin of similar phenotypes is invaluable for studying the underlying genetics of adaptive traits; molecular evidence, however, is lacking for most examples of such similarity.

American Journal of Botany, Volume 113, Issue 1, January 2026.Abstract Premise Flower color diversity within communities is shaped by biotic and abiotic factors. Pollinators often prefer specific colors, and floral pigments also help protect against abiotic factors such as ultraviolet (UV) radiation, precipitation, and temperature.

Plant Species Biology, Volume 41, Issue 1, January 2026.Our study demonstrates that fire has a strong influence on flowering phenology and reproductive dynamics in Malpighiaceae species from the Brazilian Cerrado. Specifically, fire triggered an earlier onset of flowering and promoted a more synchronous and widespread blooming, resulting in a temporary surge in floral resource availability. This increase in

Elaiophores: their taxonomic distribution, morphology and functions
Acta Botânica BrasílicaElaiophores are floral glands that secrete non-volatile oils as a reward for their pollinators. Their secretions mediate a specialized interaction between oil-producing plants and a few species of oil-collecting bees - Apidae and Melittidae.

Pterandric Acid – its Isolation, Synthesis and Stereochemistry
Natural Product Communications, 2015 Some plant families have a specialized type of pollination system, with floral lipid rewards for pollinators, which is common. In neotropical Malpighiaceae species like Pterandra pyroidea , this specialized type of pollination system is apparently ...
