"Techniques for Pollination Biologists" is the first book to
incorporate all techniques published in the pollination literature
as well as unpublished methods compiled from practicing pollination
biologists. The bibliography includes 1,200 references from more
than 200 journals, plus books and previously unpublished materials.
Appendices list sources for all the equipment and chemicals
needed.
This book presents the newest techniques such as fluorescence
microscopy to examine pollen tubes, high-pressure liquid
chromatography for nectar analysis, and using particle counters to
count pollen grains and nuclear magnetic resonance for floral odor
analysis. In addition to these sophisticated methods, basic
techniques are described for labeling plants, manipulating flowers,
marking or excluding, and designing simple but elegant experiments
with small budgets. The book also examines potential pitfalls for
pollination studies and offers cautionary advice about designing
and implementing different types of pollination experiments.
