International Journal of Ecology, Volume 2023, Issue 1, 2023., 2023 The abandonment of seminatural Molinia meadows observed in Central and Eastern Europe during the 20th century started the secondary succession and threatened the state and persistence of populations of numerous meadow species. Considering this, the aims of the presented investigations were to study the abundance and selected traits of individuals of ...

Morpho-functional traits and pollination mechanisms of Coronilla emerus L. flowers (fabaceae). [PDF]
, 2012 It is accepted that the papilionaceous corolla of the Fabaceae evolved under the selective pressure of bee pollinators. Morphology and function of different parts of Coronilla emerus L. flowers were related to their role in the pollination mechanism. The
