- Their peculiar floral structure calls for intricate pollination mechanisms that reflect a long history of adaptive coevolution between plants and pollinators. Xenogamy is deeply rooted in the Lamiaceae. Protandry or gynodioecy, especially frequent in this family, maximizes cross-fertilization.

Aug 1, 2007 · In self-fertile individuals the relative position of the pollen sacs and the stigmatic tissues determine the degree of geitonogamy and xenogamy. In Lamiaceae, diverse mechanisms promote outcrossing, i.e. gynodioecy, dichogamy and herkogamy.

Sep 1, 2020 · In this special issue, we attempt both to elucidate some of the mechanisms underpinning the evolutionary success of Salvia and to clarify pollination biology, phylogenetic relationships, plastome evolution, and subgeneric classification within the genus.

Sep 1, 2020 · Salvia (Lamiaceae), or the sages, are one of the most species-rich and recognizable genera of flowering plants. Salvia contains about 1000 species, is native on six continents, and has more than 150 species in cultivation for ornamental, culinary, and/ or medicinal purposes. While Salvia has been recognized as a ge-nussinceLinnaeus ...

Jun 28, 2008 · It is characterized by the famous staminal lever mechanism of the flower which is one of the best known examples of a nototribic pollination mechanism. We hypothesize that structure and functioning of the staminal levers play a major role as key structures in speciation.

The ‘bilabiate blossom’ characterizing the Lamiaceae is a construction for nototribic (dorsal) pollen deposition. It has evolved many times in parallel and illustrates that distantly related plants can approximate to similar functional solutions and that closely related plants can realise these solutions by diverse morphological means.
