• Beyond nectar sweetness: the hidden ecological role of non‐protein amino acids in nectar (2014, background): “GABA generally occurs at the higher concentrations, ranging from 0.57 nmol ml 1 in Nicotiana alata (Kaczorowski, Gardener & Holtsfor 2005) to about 750 nmol ml 1 in Agrostemma githago (Gardener & Gillman 2001) (Table 2).”
• ATTRACTING ANTAGONISTS: DOES FLORAL NECTAR INCREASE LEAF HERBIVORY? (2004, background): “However, nectar composition may be less variable than concentration (Gardener and Gillman 2001b).”
• Atmospheric nitrogen deposition in terrestrial ecosystems: Its impact on plant communities and consequences across trophic levels (2018, background): “Studies have shown fertilisation 24 consistently increases glutamine (Gardener & Gillman 2001; Gijbels, Van den Ende & Honnay 2014; 25 Ceulemans et al. 2017b).”
• The taste of nectar - a neglected area of pollination ecology (2002, methodology): “…annua, =Conol ulus ar ensis, =Lythrum salicaria, =Prunella ulgaris. composition (and so taste values) can be modified by soil nutrient conditions (Gardener and Gillman 2001a) by addition of pollen to nectar (Linskens and Schrauwen 1969, Erhardt and Baker 1990) or atmospheric CO2 levels (Erhardt…”
• EXTRAFLORAL NECTAR AS A RESOURCE MEDIATING MULTISPECIES INTERACTIONS (2004, methodology): “Nectar samples were then analyzed via HPLC (high-pressure liquid chromatography) for amino acids (Gardener and Gillman 2001) and for sugars (by D. L. Hendrix following Hendrix and Wei 1994).”
• Weed-insect pollinator networks as bio-indicators of ecological sustainability in agriculture. A review (2016, background): “For instance, nitrogen fertilization increases nectar amino acid concentration in A. githago L. (Caryophyllaceae) (Gardener and Gillman 2001).”
