Micromorphology of Sorbus intermedia Pers. nectary surface in different phases of blooming
Acta Agrobotanica, 2012 The structure of floral nectary surface of Sorbus intermedia in different phases of flower development was examined using scanning electron microscopy. Nectaries in S. intermedia flowers represent a receptacle type.

Mutualism and Antagonism in a Post‐Extinction Hawaiian Bird–Lobelioid Pollination System
Ecology and Evolution, Volume 16, Issue 8, August 2026.Species loss can restructure plant–pollinator interactions, but the functional consequences of altered interactions remain unclear. Using camera observations and experimental manipulations in Hawaiian lobelioids, we show that nectarivorous birds differ in whether visits result in pollen contact or nectar robbing, with robbing altering nectar dynamics ...

Floral nectary and osmophore of Epipactis helleborine (L.) Crantz (Orchidaceae)
Protoplasma, 2018 The analysis of flowers collected at different stages of anthesis provides strong evidence to conclude that the shell-shaped hypochile and the knobs of epichile form a nectary.

Flowering biology and structure of floral nectaries in Galanthus nivalis L.
Acta Societatis Botanicorum Poloniae, 2016 In Poland Galanthus nivalis L. is partially protected. The flowers of this species are one of the first sources of nectar and pollen for insects from February to April. The aim of this study was to present the flowering biology as well as the topography,

Fungal Community Composition Varies Across Floral and Extrafloral Nectaries
Journal of Basic Microbiology, Volume 66, Issue 8, August 2026.ABSTRACT Floral (FNs) and extrafloral nectaries (EFNs) are key plant microhabitats that mediate interactions among plants, insects, and microorganisms, yet their associated fungal communities remain poorly characterized, especially in tropical ecosystems.

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.Names in the genus Pinguicula established for taxa from the Baltic and Nordic countries, including their oversea territories and Iceland, were analyzed to provide nomenclatural and taxonomic clarity. Of the 33 names retrieved from the literature and online databases, one is illegitimate, two are invalid and 16 were found to require typification.

PLoS ONE, 2017 Extrafloral nectaries can occur in both vegetative and reproductive plant structures. In many Rubiaceae species in the Brazilian Cerrado, after corolla abscission, the floral nectary continues to secret nectar throughout fruit development originating ...

Taxonomic reappraisal of the mangrove genus Avicennia (Acanthaceae) in India
Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2026, Issue 8, August 2026.A taxonomic reappraisal of the mangrove genus Avicennia in India was undertaken through extensive field surveys and critical examination of herbarium specimens. Three taxa, Avicennia alba, Avicennia marina subsp. marina, and Avicennia officinalis, are described in detail. A synonymic list was compiled using the World Checklist of Vascular Plants (WCVP)

Ecology and Evolution, 2018 Floral nectaries are closely associated with biotic pollination, and the nectar produced by corolla nectaries is generally enclosed in floral structures. Although some Swertia spp. (Gentianaceae), including S.
