Sniffing out patterns of sexual dimorphism in floral scent (2009, background): “Given that floral volatiles can be important mediators of plant-animal interactions (Raguso 2008), and be influenced by development (Muhlemann et al.”
Assessment of pollen rewards by foraging bees (2017, background): “In natural settings, it is more difficult to measure how pollinators respond to variation in odour concentrations and to test the significance of pollen odour cues for finding flowers or predicting the amount of pollen available (Galizia et al. 2005; Raguso 2008; Carr et al. 2015), especially consid”
Private channel: a single unusual compound assures specific pollinator attraction in Ficus semicordata (2009, background): “Floral scents are complex blends of volatile organic com- pounds which have been suggested to be an ancient medium of chemical communication in plant–pollinator interactions (Pellmyr & Thien 1986; Visser 1986; Dobson 1994; Raguso 2001, 2008b; Knudsen et al. 2006).”
Air pollutants degrade floral scents and increase insect foraging times (2016, background): “Generalist insects such as honeybees respond to floral bouquets instead of a specific scent 358 (Wright et al., 2005; Raguso, 2008).”
The specialization continuum in pollination systems: diversity of concepts and implications for ecology, evolution and conservation (2017, background): “Even more effective advertisement filtering is seen through diversification in floral fragrance chemistry, with certain compounds selectively attracting or repelling different kinds of animals (Faegri & van der Pijl 1979; Dressler 1982; Fenster et al. 2004; Raguso 2008).”
Do carnivorous plants use volatiles for attracting prey insects (2009, background): “…grouped into specialized olfactory ‘syndromes’ similar to the findings in pollination ecology, where plant species visited by similar pollinators exhibit similar chemical compositions that are attributed to convergent adaptations to the sensory physiology of pollinators (Dobson 2006; Raguso 2008).”
Yeasts in floral nectar of some South African plants: Quantification and associations with pollinator type and sugar concentration (2009, background): “Plant–pollinator interactions have traditionally been assumed to be binary systems in which both partners should obtain a net benefit: reproduction on the one hand (plants) and food resources on the other (pollinator) (Bertin, 1989; Bronstein et al., 2006; Raguso, 2008a).”
How do belowground organisms influence plant–pollinator interactions? (2015, neutral): “More subtle floral characteristics involved in pollinator choice, such as scent (Raguso 2008) or nectar constituents including sugar composition (Herrera et al.”
Butterfly optimization algorithm: a novel approach for global optimization (2018, background): “Based on scientiﬁc observations, it is found that butterﬂies have a very accurate sense of locating the source of fragrance (Raguso 2008).”
Phenotypic selection on floral scent: trade-off between attraction and deterrence? (2011, background): “2009), but usually fragrance consists of complex blends of VOCs originating from different biosynthetic pathways (Raguso 2008).”
