Abstract: PREMISES OF THE STUDY Floral damage caused by florivores often has negative consequences for plant reproduction. However, the factors affecting plant-florivore interactions are still poorly understood, especially the role of abiotic factors and interspecific variation… read more here.

DOI: 10.1002/ecy.3839
Abstract: The vast diversity of flower shapes, colors, and sizes is considered a classic example of coevolution and adaptation. Plants use flowers to attract pollinators and offer them rewards, such as nectar, pollen or resins, in… read more here.

Abstract: BACKGROUND AND AIMS In animal-pollinated plants, direct and indirect selection for large and small flowers in predominantly outcrossing and selfing species, respectively, is a common consequence of pollen limitation (PL). However, many hermaphroditic species show… read more here.

DOI: 10.1093/aobpla/plz061
Abstract: Abstract Zygomorphic flower species tend to show lower flower size variation than actinomorphic flower species. Have these differences also brought an association in ovule and seed production that has arisen due to natural selection in… read more here.

Abstract: Bees are major pollinators of angiosperms and have phylogenetically conserved colour vision but differ in how various key species use achromatic information that is vital for both flower detection and size processing. We modelled green… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/genes13061022
Abstract: Hibiscus syriacus, azalea, is an important woody ornamental shrub planted throughout many temperate and subtropical regions of the world. However, flower size is smaller in this species than some of its relatives. To increase flower… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/ijms232415624
Abstract: Flower development is not only an important way for tomato reproduction but also an important guarantee for tomato fruit production. Although more and more attention has been paid to the study of flower development, there… read more here.
