Generalist‐pollinated Arabis alpina exhibits floral scent variation at multiple scales

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Plants that depend on animals for reproduction often use complex floral traits to attract pollinators. Floral scent is recognized as part of the pollinator attraction module and can be shaped by plant‐pollinator interactions. In recent decades, research has started to reveal the dynamic properties of floral scent, identifying patterns of spatial and ...

Reinstatement of the name Anisochilus eriocephalus Benth. (Lamiaceae) supported by micromorphological and molecular data

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
In 2019, A. J. Paton et al. proposed a new taxonomic combination, transferring Anisochilus carnosus (L.f.) Wall. ex Benth. to Coleus strobilifer (Benth.) A.J.Paton, and including Anisochilus eriocephalus Benth. within this broader circumscription.

Effects of different wavelengths of LED light on pollen germination and direction of pollen tube elongation in Cyrtanthus mackenii

open access: yesAdvances in Horticultural Science, 2014
The effects of different light wavelengths on pollen germination and determination of the direction of pollen tube elongation of Cyrtanthus mackenii was examined in vitro using light-emitting diodes (LED) with five peak wavelengths: 405 nm (violet), 465

Pollen-specific pectin methylesterase involved in pollen tube growth

open access: yesDevelopmental Biology, 2006
Pollen tube elongation in the pistil is a crucial step in the sexual reproduction of plants. Because the wall of the pollen tube tip is composed of a single layer of pectin and, unlike most other plant cell walls, does not contain cellulose or callose, pectin methylesterases (PMEs) likely play a central role in the pollen tube growth and determination ...

Unraveling cryptic lineages in Jatropha nana: phylogenetic evidence supports species status for J. benghalensis (Euphorbiaceae)

open access: yesNordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
The taxonomic framework of the genus Jatropha (Euphorbiaceae) is well established, but its geophytic species present significant classification challenges. These difficulties arise from species complexes, cryptic traits, and high environmental and phenotypic variability.
