Pollination biology of Annona squamosa L. (Annonaceae): Evidence for pollination syndrome

Scientia Horticulturae, 2012
Abstract Pollination biology of Annona squamosa was investigated in the context of functional specialization and pollination syndrome. Hermaphroditic flower exhibited protogynous dichogamy as stigma became receptive a day before anther dehiscence. Flowers produce moderately high number (16,280 ± 324) of spherical and medium size (98.6 μm × 87.3 μm ...

Pollination syndromes and the origins of floral traits

Annals of Botany, 2023
Abstract Background A general view in the study of pollination syndromes is that floral traits usually represent convergent floral adaptations to specific functional pollinator groups. However, the definition of convergence is elusive and contradictory in the literature. Is convergence the independent

The genetic dissection of floral pollination syndromes

Current Opinion in Plant Biology, 2006
A major factor in the evolution of the angiosperms is the adaptation of plants to animal pollinators. The specific morphology of a flower, its color, nectar composition and scent production can all contribute to reproductive success by attracting pollinators and by limiting out-crossing with other species.

Are floral traits good predictors of effective pollinators? A test of pollination syndromes

Ecological Research, 2021
Abstract Pollination syndromes have been widely used to predict the groups of pollinators of plants. Their predictability has been demonstrated for plant species pollinated by bees, birds, and bats. However, the importance of other aspects on the predictability of pollination syndromes still remain unknown.

Pollination Syndromes and Floral Specialization

Annual Review of Ecology, Evolution, and Systematics, 2004
▪ Abstract  Floral evolution has often been associated with differences in pollination syndromes. Recently, this conceptual structure has been criticized on the grounds that flowers attract a broader spectrum of visitors than one might expect based on their syndromes and that flowers often diverge without excluding one type of pollinator in favor of ...
