Variability in mating strategies in a widespread cactus in the Chihuahuan Desert

Nordic Journal of Botany, Volume 2022, Issue 12, December 2022., 2022
Opuntia is the most diverse and widespread genus in the Cactaceae; several species have broad distribution ranges and have successfully adapted to distinct habitats. One explanation for their success is the diversity of their reproductive systems. Opuntia macrocentra is one of the most common widespread species in North American deserts.

Correlation of self‐ and interspecific incompatibility among sympatric Hedyotis species (Rubiaceae) and consequences for hybridization

Journal of Systematics and Evolution, Volume 60, Issue 5, Page 998-1011, September 2022., 2022
Distyly in Hedyotis bodinieri (top left, pin morph; lower left, thrum morph) and growth of Hedyotis vachellii pollen (thrum morph) on the stigma of Hedyotis acutangula (pin morph). Abstract Breakdown of self‐incompatibility increases opportunities for both self‐fertilization and interspecific hybridization, although the latter is dependent on the ...

Interaction between Cymbidium aloifolium and Apis cerana: Incidence of an outlier in modular pollination network of oil flowers

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 12, Issue 3, March 2022., 2022
Cymbidium aloifolium is a perennial, epiphytic orchid found in the tropical regions of South Asia. Its oil‐rewarding flowers are invariably pollinated by a non‐oil bee, Apis cerana indica. The study highlights the mechanism and traits that establish floral constancy and pollination mutualism. Photo: Arjun Adit Abstract So far, oil‐rewarding flowers are

Floral traits and reproductive success variation among inflorescence orders in Eryngium maritimum

Plant Biology, Volume 24, Issue 2, Page 249-258, March 2022., 2022
Eryngium maritimum (Apiaceae L.) is a strongly entomophilous species that displays morphometric and reproductive differences among capitula located in different whorls, suggesting functional differences at intra‐individual level. Abstract Eryngium maritimum L. is considered a key species in dunes of the western Mediterranean. Although Northern European

Batesian mimicry in the nonrewarding saprophytic orchid Danxiaorchis yangii

Ecology and Evolution, Volume 11, Issue 6, Page 2524-2534, March 2021., 2021
The study provide detailed evidence that Danxiaorchis yangii simulates the visual signals of Lysimachia alfredi through Batesian mimicry, thereby deceivingly attracting Dufourea sp. Abstract Batesian mimicry, a type of deceptive pollination, is a complicated strategy used by nonrewarding plants to attract pollinators, but some hypotheses concerning ...
