Can nectary structure in Laeliinae promote or constrain nectar secretion? [PDF]
BMC Plant BiologyThe orchid subtribe Laeliinae has an assemblage of morphologically diverse taxa. The diversity in floral morphology of its members can be explained in terms of pollination ecology in that this subtribe contains both entomophilous and ornithophilous ...
