Abstract: PREMISE Floral scent is a key aspect of plant reproduction, but its intraspecific variation at multiple scales is poorly understood. Sexual dimorphism and temporal regulation of scent can be shaped by evolution, and interpopulation variation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1021/acs.jafc.2c06703
Abstract: Vaccinium corymbosum (highbush blueberry) in British Columbia relies on honeybee pollination for a reliable fruit set. As floral volatiles may help explain pollinator preference for blueberry, we surveyed components of variation for volatiles using gas… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2017.01955
Abstract: Flowers have evolved diverse strategies to attract animal pollinators, with visual and olfactory floral cues often crucial for pollinator attraction. While most plants provide reward (e.g., nectar, pollen) in return for the service of pollination,… read more here.

DOI: 10.3389/fpls.2020.01116
Abstract: Floral scent often intensifies during periods of pollinator activity, but the degree of this synchrony may vary among scent compounds depending on their function. Related plant species with the same pollinator may exhibit similar timing… read more here.
