VARIATIONS IN THE ULTRAVIOLET FLORAL PATTERNS AND POLLINATOR PREFERENCE AMONG SELECTED NON-INVASIVE AND INVASIVE PLANTS OF TAMIL NADU, INDIA

2023-06-30

Abstract excerpt

Fossil evidence shows that pollinator-mediated plant reproduction evolved ∼140 million years ago and bee facilitated pollination evolved ∼70 million years ago. Human vision is limited to the visible color range of 400 to 750 nanometres, whereas most pollinators can perceive the ultraviolet (UV) range in addition to visible colors. Bees have been reported to have highest spectral sensitivity in the ultraviolet spec...
