The cloud forest species Meriania macrophylla (Benth.) Triana has pseudocampanulate flowers with bulbous stamen appendages, typical for the passerine pollination syndrome found in the Melastomataceae tribe Merianieae. The species is further characterized

Pollination by hummingbirds of Vriesea gigantea (Bromeliaceae) populations in Southern Brazil
The pollination syndrome hypothesis usually does not successfully apply to the diversity of floral phenotypes or help predict the pollinators of most plant species.

Effect of climate, anther morphology and pollination syndrome on pollen availability in Penstemon
Traditionally, pollen presentation is thought to be a function of pollinator type and visitation frequency. However, despite the repeated observation that pollen presentation is influenced by flower morphology and abiotic factors, these aspects have been

Variation in plant traits and phylogenetic structure associated with native and nonnative species in an industrialized flora [PDF]
Industrialized sites are hotspots for nonnative species because of continuous anthropogenic disturbance and nonnative propagule rain resulting from hitchhikers exchanged through global trade.

The importance of pollination and dispersal syndromes for the conservation of Cerrado Rupestre fragments on ironstone outcrops immersed in an agricultural landscape [PDF]
Studies on pollination and seed dispersal are essential for the conservation of plant diversity. In this study, we aimed to evaluate the pollination and dispersal syndromes of five fragments of the Cerrado Rupestre immersed in an agricultural landscape ...

Floral nectar is the most important reward for pollinators and an integral component of the pollination syndrome. Nectar research has mainly focused on sugars or amino acids, whereas more comprehensive studies on the nectar composition of closely related

Evolutionary Genetics: Inheritance of a Complex Pollination Syndrome [PDF]
How adaptive traits that are controlled by multiple genes evolve is an intriguing question in evolutionary genetics. A recent study shows that tight linkage allows genes that contribute to a multitrait pollination syndrome to be inherited together as a unit.
