Abstract Premise The floral thermal microenvironment impacts plant reproduction through its effects on gametophyte performance and plant–pollinator interactions. Color and shape are axes of floral variation that may mediate floral temperature because they affect the absorption and reflection of solar radiation, but their interactive effects are unclear.

Floral biology and pollination in Brazil: history and possibilities
Pollination research in Brazil virtually started with Fritz Muller, whose insights supported Darwin's evolutionary theory. Pollination systems of Brazilian plants were studied mainly by travelling researchers until early last century when native or ...

The unique morphological basis and repeated evolutionary origins of personate flowers in Penstemon
Abstract Premise Adaptive radiation in ecologically and morphologically diverse plant lineages presents an opportunity to investigate the rapid evolution of novel floral traits. While some types of floral traits, such as flower color, are well characterized, other types of complex morphologies remain understudied.

Important Crop Pollinators Respond Less Negatively to Anthropogenic Land Use Than Other Animals
Animal‐mediated pollination is a key ecosystem service required to some extent by almost three‐quarters of the leading human food crops in global food production.

Do Skin Prick Tests Predict Nasal Provocation Test Outcomes in Allergic Rhinitis Patients?
ABSTRACT Background In diagnosing allergic rhinitis (AR), conventional skin prick tests (SPTs) often fail to reflect allergen‐induced nasal symptoms. Conversely, nasal provocation tests (NPTs) provide more definitive assessments but are less accessible.

Analysis of plant metabolomics data using identification‐free approaches
Abstract Plant metabolomes are structurally diverse. One of the most popular techniques for sampling this diversity is liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC‐MS), which typically detects thousands of peaks from single organ extracts, many representing true metabolites.
