Pollination ecology of New Zealand orchids : a thesis presented in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree of Master of Science in Ecology at Massey University [PDF]

, 2002
The New Zealand orchid flora comprises twenty-five genera and at least 100 species occurring throughout the country. Although the number of endemic species is high (69%) only four genera are endemic to New Zealand.

Complete chloroplast genome of Triticum aestivum cultivar ‘Keumkang’ from Korea (Poaceae) and comparative chloroplast genomes of the members of the Triticum genus

Journal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Bread wheat (Triticum aestivum L.) is a major global food crop, and understanding its maternal lineage and genetic diversity is essential for breeding, authentication, and evolutionary studies. Chloroplast genomes provide valuable markers for phylogenetic inference and cultivar discrimination; however, conventional plant DNA ...

Asphalted parking lots are environmental filters for multiple propagule dispersal and pollination strategies

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Understanding community assembly for wild species in anthropogenic settings has become increasingly important as biodiversity and ecosystem services are threatened by development pressures. Urban hardscape habitats such as parking lots are widespread, extreme, terrestrial anthropogenic environments that influence plant community assembly by way of ...

Outcrossing rate of safflower (Carthamus tinctorius L.) genotypes under the agro climatic conditions of Northern Germany [PDF]

, 2008
Safflower oil is considered to be one of the highest quality vegetable oils for human nutrition, containing up to 90% linoleic acid. The cultivation of safflower would enlarge the number of species to increase biodiversity and widen crop rotation.

Variation in pollen limitation among reproductive modules points to likely resource reallocation in the alpine plant Veratrum grandiflorum

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Pollen limitation, a decrease in seed production due to insufficient pollen receipt, may influence plant demography and the evolution of sexual systems. Its empirical estimation of pollen supplementation of some of the flowers on an individual is well known to be prone to overestimation due to potential resource reallocation among the individual's ...

Generalist‐pollinated Arabis alpina exhibits floral scent variation at multiple scales

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Plants that depend on animals for reproduction often use complex floral traits to attract pollinators. Floral scent is recognized as part of the pollinator attraction module and can be shaped by plant‐pollinator interactions. In recent decades, research has started to reveal the dynamic properties of floral scent, identifying patterns of spatial and ...

The reduction in genetic quality of seeds resulting from self-pollination acts as a pivotal factor limiting the regeneration of the endangered plant Tetracentron sinense Oliv

Global Ecology and Conservation
Tetracentron sinense Oliv., an endangered relict species from the Eocene, primarily relies on self-pollination in nature. However, the impacts of self-pollination on seed quality, seedling viability, and population renewal remain unclear.

Taxonomy and diversity of Marcgraviaceae, north of the São Francisco river, northeast Brazil

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
This study provides a comprehensive assessment of Marcgraviaceae species diversity north of the São Francisco river in northeastern Brazil, analyzing species richness and distribution patterns across 384 000 km² of phytogeographic domains. Through field collections, herbarium studies (both physical and digital), and detailed morphological analyses, we ...
