Functional Ecology, 2022 Abstract Nectar is a key resource for numerous insects. Despite its importance, nectar productivity has mainly been assessed using one sampling method, in which the volume of nectar produced by a flower is measured after 24 h of isolation from insects (‘measured 24 h volume’ hereafter).

The Octadecanoid Pathway, but Not COI1, Is Required for Nectar Secretion in Arabidopsis thaliana
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2018 Over 75% of crop species produce nectar and are dependent on pollinators to achieve maximum seed set, yet little is known about the mechanisms regulating nectar secretion.

Nectar production and pollination in peach
International Journal of Horticultural Science, 2000 Observations were made at two growing sites, Siófok and Szatymaz, in the years 1998 and 1999, on 16 peach varieties. The production of nectar was measured, the foraging behaviour of bees, fruit set and the effect of exclusion of bee visits for different periods were observed systematically. Production of nectar confirmed earlier data, 9.09 mg per

NECTAR PRODUCTIVITY OF SUNFLOWER LINES AND HYBRIDS
Сборник материалов 11-й Всероссийской конференции молодых учёных и специалистов «Актуальные вопросы биологии, селекции, технологии возделывания и переработки сельскохозяйственных культур», 2021 Common sunflower is an entomophilous crop; therefore, the presence of pollinating insects is necessary for the realization of the potential productivity of plants. Nectar is the main attractant of sunflower. In this work we determined the nectar bearing capacity and sugar content (dry matter content) of nectar in tubular flowers of various sunflower ...

A dataset of nectar sugar production for flowering plants found in urban green spaces
Ecological Solutions and Evidence, 2023 Nectar and pollen are floral resources that provide food for insect pollinators, so quantifying their supplies can help us to understand and mitigate pollinator declines.

NECTAR PRODUCTION IN SEVERAL Campanula SPECIES (CAMPANULACEAE)
Acta Scientiarum Polonorum Hortorum Cultus, 2018 The flowering, nectar production and sugar content were examined in 2012–2013 seasons for three Campanula species (C. persicifolia L., C. glomerata L., C. trachelium L.). The flowers of all studied Campanula spp. are distinctly protandrous; most of them opened between 10.00 and 14.00; only the flowers of C. glomerata continued the opening process until

Application of Haccp System on Guava Nectar Production Line [PDF]
Journal of Food and Dairy Sciences, 2018 HACCP is a key part of modern food safety management applications such that design, implementation, control and management of HACCP systems are crucial to the production of safe food products. Whilst it is widely accepted that food companies should apply

Ecophysiological aspects of nectar reabsorption
Acta Agrobotanica, 2012 A number of approaches, both direct and indirect, have shown that nectar is reabsorbed by numerous plant species, irrespective of the age or sex of the flower.

AgricultureFloral nectar is mainly a reward in the form of food for pollinators. Its composition plays an important role when pollinators choose their food. Several studies have shown that the popularity of flowers with nectar is influenced by the concentration and
