Nectar secretion is complicated to study from the ultrastructural point of view because it is a dynamic process involving many tissues simultaneously. Study may also be affected by artefacts created by chemical fixation procedures, although this problem can be overcome by freeze-drying and freeze substitution techniques (Zhu & Hu, 2002; Stpiczyńska et al., 2005b). Previous research has focused on the ultrastructure of secretory cells, especially secreting trichomes (Robards & Stark, 1988), and a general model of nectary function as a whole is still lacking. © 2007 Springer.

Abstract

Study may also be affected by artefacts created by chemical fixation procedures, although this problem can be overcome by freeze-drying and freeze substitution techniques (Zhu & Hu, 2002; Stpiczyńska et al., 2005b). Previous research has focused on the ultrastructure of secretory cells, especially secreting trichomes (Robards & Stark, 1988), and a general model of nectary function as a whole is still lacking. © 2007 Springer.
