Three paths for pollen flow: selfing: 1. Within flower 2. Between flowers 3. outcrossing (between plants)

Female zone Male zone Bees fly up Then start over at the bottom Three components to outcrossing in foxglove 1. Young flowers are male, old are female 2. Young flowers are nearer the top 3. Bees fly up.

-pollination syndromes Hummingbird -- -long tube -red color -abundant nectar - no odor - no landing
49
-pollination syndromes Bat -- -abundant pollen -white or drab color -abundant nectar - good odor - strong landing
50
Banana (Musa), pollinated by bats, dispersed by monkeys
53
-pollination syndromes Sphinx Moth -- -long tube -white color -abundant nectar - exquisite odor (periodic) - landing
55
Angraecum (Orchidaceae)
58
-pollination syndromes Carrion insect -- -contrasting light and dark pattern -brown-purple color -no nectar - foul odor
