Ecology: The role of flowers as microclimatic chambers

Margarita M. López-Uribe

Research output: Contribution to journal › Article › peer-review

Abstract

The important role of pollinators in floral evolution has been well established through centuries of research. A new study combining micrometeorological and behavioral experiments demonstrates that abiotic conditions also play a key role in shaping floral morphology and function in relation to insect visitors.
