Abstract: Long-lived flowers increase pollen transfer rates, but these entail high water and carbon maintenance costs. The retention of pollinated and reward-free old flowers enhances pollinator visitation to young receptive flowers by increasing floral display size.… read more here.

Abstract: Floral syndromes are known by the conserved morphological traits in flowers associated with pollinator attraction, such as corolla shape and color, aroma emission and composition, and rewards, especially the nectar volume and sugar concentration. Here,… read more here.
