Stacked scattering: The key to bright flowers lies in the mesophyll. [PDF]

Am J Bot
Abstract Premise The coloration of flowers is caused by wavelength‐selective absorption by pigments and scattering of light by floral structures. Although the molecular, physiological, and chemical properties of floral pigments have been studied in considerable detail, how floral structures contribute to the visual signal remains largely unknown.
