Avian pollinators and the pollination syndromes of selected Mountain Fynbos plants
South African Journal of Botany, 1984 The flowering phenology of Erica and proteaceous plants and the abundance of nectarivorous birds were monitored in Mountain Fynbos in the Jonkershoek State Forest, South Africa. Species tended to flower for short periods in summer at high altitudes, or for longer periods in autumn and winter at low altitudes.

PSYCHOPHILOUS AND MELITTOPHILOUS POLLINATION SYNDROME IN Tridax procumbens L. (ASTERACEAE)
TAPROBANICA, 2013 ridax procumbens exhibits explosive flowering during June–September while sporadic flowering at other times. In the capitula, the florets are of two types, nectarless female ray florets and nectariferous bisexual disc florets.

International Forum of Allergy &Rhinology, EarlyView.ABSTRACT Background Chronic rhinitis (CR) is currently recognized as a syndrome that manifests in different phenotypes. We aimed to establish an artificial intelligence system (quantitative assessment of nasal inflammatory cytology, QANIC) on the basis of whole‐slide images (WSIs) to enable quantitative assessment of nasal inflammatory cells.

Animal‐mediated seed dispersal: A review of study methods
Applications in Plant Sciences, EarlyView.Abstract By dispersing seeds, animals provide ecological functions critical for the ecology, evolution, and conservation of plants. We review quantitative and empirical approaches and emerging technologies to quantify processes and patterns of animal‐mediated seed dispersal (zoochory) across its phases: from predispersal to postdispersal.

Radial or bilateral? The molecular basis of floral symmetry. [PDF]
, 2020 In the plant kingdom, the flower is one of the most relevant evolutionary novelties. Floral symmetry has evolved multiple times from the ancestral condition of radial to bilateral symmetry.

The spread of non‐native species
Biological Reviews, EarlyView.ABSTRACT The global redistribution of species through human agency is one of the defining ecological signatures of the Anthropocene, with biological invasions reshaping biodiversity patterns, ecosystem processes and services, and species interactions globally.

Gradual pollen presentation in Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Bluecrop’: an adaptive mechanism to improve pollination efficiency and outcrossing [PDF]
PeerJGradual pollen presentation is a plant reproductive mechanism to improve pollination efficiency and accuracy and promote outcrossing. Vaccinium corymbosum ‘Bluecrop’ has a typical gradual pollen presentation mechanism.

Co-expression clustering across flower development identifies modules for diverse floral forms in Achimenes (Gesneriaceae) [PDF]
PeerJ, 2020 Background Genetic pathways involved with flower color and shape are thought to play an important role in the development of flowers associated with different pollination syndromes, such as those associated with bee, butterfly, or hummingbird pollination.
