Nectar is the most important reward offered by plants to
pollinating animals. This book is a modern and interdisciplinary
text on nectar and nectaries, prompted by the expansion of
knowledge, especially in the more ecological and now molecular
fields, and the strong recent interest in pollination biology. The
topics covered vary widely: they include historical aspects, the
structure and ultrastructure of nectaries and relationships to
plant systematics, the dynamics of nectar secretion, nectar
chemistry and the molecular biology of defence proteins,
adaptations to insect and vertebrate nectar consumers and
consequences for pollination ecology, and broad-scale studies of
nectar resources at the community level.
