Vegetative reproduction, however, counteracts this by increasing the number of inflorescences of the same genotype.From theCambridge English Corpus
Of the 27 unbagged inflorescences from which insect collections were made, 19 were males, six were females, and two were bisexuals.From theCambridge English Corpus
To exclude i nsect visitors, we completely covered 3-5 unopened inflorescences with mosquito gauze (mesh size: 1 mm).From theCambridge English Corpus
The final treatment was unmanipulated female inflorescences exposed to both wind and insect pollination modes (open pollination).From theCambridge English Corpus
Inflorescences per tree were quantified by counting the inflorescences of a representative part of the tree crown and then extrapolating to the whole crown.From theCambridge English Corpus
Floral odour production was assayed by enclosing several male and female inflorescences in separate test tubes for 1 h to let any fragrance concentrate.From theCambridge English Corpus
The hybrid material is highly feminine, and the rare male inflorescences that appear produce only a small amount of viable pollen.From theCambridge English Corpus
Moreover, we identify the volatile compounds emitted by the inflorescences that may be implicated in beetle attraction.From theCambridge English Corpus
In our sample, about 83% of species exhibited compound inflorescences, although it is not known how this compares to floras of other regions.From theCambridge English Corpus
Mean values of three control inflorescences from the same plant were used for statistical comparison.From theCambridge English Corpus
The wasps are deceived into pollinating the inflorescences on female plants, but fail to reproduce.From theCambridge English Corpus
In both cases, the infloresences are generally similar in size except for the peduncles of the male inflorescences which are longer than the female's.From theCambridge English Corpus
Such flowers in low numbers are easily overlooked among numerous male inflorescences and may be more frequent than reports suggest.From theCambridge English Corpus
Of the female inflorescences, c. 45% abort - 20.7 and 24.8% during the bud and the anthesis stages, respectively.From theCambridge English Corpus
