Plant phenotypic plasticity in response to herbivore attack includes changes in flower traits.
Such herbivore-induced changes in flower traits have consequences for interactions with …

Insects use several senses to forage, detecting floral cues such as color, shape, pattern, and
volatiles. We report a formerly unappreciated sensory modality in bumblebees (Bombus …

Plant–insect interactions are determined by both chemical and physical mechanisms.
Biomechanical factors play an important role across many ecological situations, including …

Pod coloration is a domestication-related trait in soybean, with modern cultivars typically
displaying brown or tan pods, while their wild relative, Glycine soja, possesses black pods …

Recent anthropogenic climate change is strongly associated with average shifts toward
earlier seasonal timing of activity (phenology) in temperate-zone species. Shifts in …

Abstract Background and Aims Studies of the effects of pollination on floral scent and bee
visitation remain rare, particularly in agricultural crops. To fill this gap, the hypothesis that …

Floral colour change is visual signals for pollinators to avoid old flowers and increase
pollination efficiency. Quisqualis indica flowers change colour from white to pink to red may …

Reproduction in many angiosperms depends on attracting animals that provide pollination
and seed dispersal services. Flowers and fleshy fruits present various features that can …

Stimuli‐responsive materials with multiple functions occupy a significant position in the
research of bionic artificial intelligence materials. It is a challenge to integrate rapid shape …

Background Anthocyanins are important contributors to coloration across a wide
phylogenetic range of plants. Biological functions of anthocyanins span from reproduction to …
