Metabolic processes underlying the formation of floral nectar carbohydrates, especially the generation of the proportions of fructose, glucose, and sucrose, are important for understanding ecological plant-pollinator interactions. The ratio of sucrose-derived hexoses, fructose and glucose, in the
Nuclear magnetic resonance spectroscopic methods have been used to characterize the chemical composition of floral nectar of Anigozanthos species with a minimum of sample preparation and without derivatization. The nectar of this passerine-pollinated plant is largely dominated by glucose and
The continued development of new cryopreservation protocols has improved post-cryogenic success rates for a wide variety of plant species. Methods like the cryo-plate have proven beneficial in simplifying the cryopreservation procedure.
