Nectar secretion and pollination in orchids

Nectar is the most advantageous reward for orchid pollinators, and its secretion is a dynamic process occurring throughout the life of the flower. Stpiczynska (pp. 191-197) shows that pollination does not limit nectar secretion, but does influence flower longevity. Flower position within the inflorescence is found to determine the availability of nectar to pollinators.
