FLORAL VOLATILE ORGANIC COMPOUNDS AS PHENOTYPIC CHARACTERS IN STENOSPERMATION SCHOTT (ARACEAE)
Project summary:
We want to analyze in a phylogenetic context if there are evolutionary patterns in the composition of floral VOCs of more closely related Stenospermation species. It can function as a bridge in the understanding of the evolution of phenotypic characters and their rapid evolutionary adaptations to new biotic interactions.
