Extrafloral nectar and above- and below-ground herbivory
The highest EFN production in seedlings of Triadica sebifera (tallow tree )is induced by above-ground herbivory when below-ground herbivores are absent.

In vivo imaging of the S-locus receptor kinase in arabidopsis
Results show that full-length SRKb is localized primarily at the plasma membrane and the secreted eSRKb product is not required for self-incompatibility.

Petal spur development in Centranthus
When concealed by petal spurs, nectar typically is restricted to flower-visiting animals possessing a sufficient tongue length to acquire it, and thus such spurs have
