The cooling of convolvulaceous flowers in a tropical environment [PDF]
Plant, Cell & Environment, 2002 AbstractThe temperatures of flowers of Ipomoea pes‐caprae ssp. brasilensis, Ipomoea aquatica and Merremia borneensis in bright sunshine, were studied to determine the role of corollas and sepals in cooling the gynoecium. The corollas and sepals were prevented from transpiring by greasing, to investigate the extent of evaporative cooling. In the exposed
