Phylogeny of Miliusa (Magnoliales: Annonaceae: Malmeoideae: Miliuseae), with descriptions of two new species from Malesia [PDF]
, 2013 The molecular phylogeny of Miliusa (Annonaceae) is reconstructed, with 27 (of ca. 50) species included, using a combination of seven plastid markers (rbcL exon, trnL intron, trnL-F spacer, matK exon, ndhF exon, psbA-trnH spacer, and ycf1 exon ...

Nectar traits differ between pollination syndromes in Balsaminaceae [PDF]
Annals of Botany, 2019 Abstract Background and Aims The attractiveness of nectar rewards depends both on the quantity of nectar produced and on its chemical composition. It is known that nectar quantity and chemical composition can differ in plant species depending on the main pollinator associated with the species.

Non-equilibrium dynamics and floral trait interactions shape extant angiosperm diversity. [PDF]
, 2016 Why are some traits and trait combinations exceptionally common across the tree of life, whereas others are vanishingly rare? The distribution of trait diversity across a clade at any time depends on the ancestral state of the clade, the rate at which ...

Anais da Academia Brasileira de Ciências, 2021 Floral traits associated with functional groups of pollinators have been largely employed to understand mechanisms of floral diversification. Hymenaea is a monophyletic legume genus widely recognized to being bat-pollinated, with nocturnal anthesis and ...

, 2016 BACKGROUND Interactions with pollinators are proposed to be one of the major drivers of diversity in angiosperms. Specialised interactions with pollinators can lead to specialised floral traits, which collectively are known as a pollination syndrome ...

Plant Biology, 2014 AbstractPollination syndromes are defined as suites of floral traits evolved in response to selection imposed by a particular group of pollinators (e.g., butterflies, hummingbirds, bats). Although numerous studies demonstrated their occurrence in plants pollinated by radically different pollinators, it is less known whether it is possible to identify ...

Bird pollinators, seed storage and cockatoo granivores explain large woody fruits as best seed defense in Hakea [PDF]
, 2016 Nutrient-impoverished soils with severe summer drought and frequent fire typify many Mediterranean-type regions of the world. Such conditions limit seed production and restrict opportunities for seedling recruitment making protection from granivores ...

Pollinators show flower colour preferences but flowers with similar colours do not attract similar pollinators [PDF]
, 2017 Background and aims: colour is one of the main floral traits used by pollinators to locate flowers. Although pollinators show innate colour preferences, the view that the colour of a flower may be considered an important predictor of its main pollinators

Frontiers in Plant Science, 2022 Selection together with variation in floral traits can act to mold floral form, often driven by a plant’s predominant or most effective pollinators. To investigate the evolution of traits associated with pollination, we developed a phylogenetic framework

American Journal of Botany, EarlyView.Abstract Premise The carnivorous plant genus Pinguicula (Lentibulariaceae) exhibits remarkable floral diversity associated with pollination, particularly in the largest subgenus Temnoceras, which spans Mexico and Central America. Despite this diversity, the relationships between species and the evolution of key floral traits remain unresolved. Here, we
