Nectary development in Cleome violacea
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Nectaries are a promising frontier for plant evo-devo research, and are particularly fascinating given their diversity in form, position, and secretion methods across angiosperms.

The developmental basis of floral nectary diversity and evolution [PDF]
New PhytologistNectar is a central bridge between angiosperms and animal mutualists. It is produced by specialized structures termed nectaries, which can be found on different plant organs.

The Genetic Control of Nectary Development [PDF]
Trends in Plant Science, 2021 Nectar is the most important reward offered by flowering plants to pollinators for pollination services. Since pollinator decline has emerged as a major threat for agriculture, and the food demand is growing globally, studying the nectar gland is of utmost importance.

Comparative Nectary Morphology across Cleomaceae (Brassicales)
Plants, 2023 Floral nectaries have evolved multiple times and rapidly diversified with the adaptive radiation of animal pollinators. As such, floral nectaries exhibit extraordinary variation in location, size, shape, and secretory mechanism.

Flowering, nectar secretion, and structure of the nectary in the flowers of Acer pseudoplatanus L.
Acta Agrobotanica, 2019 Flowering and nectar release in Acer pseudoplatanus were investigated between 2011 and 2013. The micromorphology of the floral and nectary elements was observed using a scanning electron microscope and the anatomy of nectaries was examined by light ...

Morphological and molecular mechanisms of floral nectary development in Chinese Jujube [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyBackground Chinese jujube (Ziziphus jujuba Mill.), also called Chinese date, is one of the oldest and widely cultivated fruit trees with great economic values, which, at least, can be attributed to the melliferous flower with highly developed nectary ...
