How do you build a nectar spur? A transcriptomic comparison of nectar spur development in Linaria vulgaris and gibba development in Antirrhinum majus [PDF]
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2023 Nectar spurs (tubular outgrowths of floral organs) have long fascinated biologists. However, given that no model species possess nectar spurs, there is still much to learn about their development.
