Flower display and temperature in #RoyalIrises (Iris section #Oncocyclus, Iridaceae)
Pollinators preferred larger artificial flowers for overnight shelter.
Sissi Lozada-Gobilard et al. investigated flower display and temperature in #RoyalIrises (Iris section #Oncocyclus, Iridaceae) .
📖 Flower display and temperature in #RoyalIrises (Iris section #Oncocyclus, Iridaceae)
Results:
1️⃣ #Pollinators tend to choose large flower size for night shelter.
2️⃣ The flower size is not related to ability to heat up.
Ming-Liu Yang et al. explored whether the degree of pollen limitation primarily drives differences in #MatingSystems and #FloralTraits of #Halenia species.

Meng Hou et al. took #AconitumGymnandrum as the example, estimated the effects of #FloralDisplaySize, #NectarGradient and their interactions on #PlantReproduction. The results suggest the trade-off between geitonogamy cost and reproductive benefit may play a potential role in evolution of #FloralTraits.

Will the harsh growth environment alter the #SelfCompatibility of #EpimediumChlorandrum? To understand it, Yi-Fan Qian et al. ecxplred the adaptation of E. chlorandrum of #FloralTraits to a frequently nocturnally rainy and wet environments and the roles of floral traits in pollination and reproduction.

To explore whether the degree of #PollenLimitation (PL) primarily drives differences in #MatingSystems and #FloralTraits, Ming-Liu Yang et al. investigated #FloralCharacteristics, #PollinatorVisitation, PL, #AutonomousSelfingAbility, #ReproductiveAssurance and mating system of #HaleniaElliptica and #HaleniaGrandiflora.
