The location and structure of the septal nectaries in the flowers of Allium aflatunense B. Fedtsch. were studied. Light and scanning electron microscopy were used for examination. It has been shown that the septal nectaries are located in the lower part of the ovary and in the gynophore on which the ovary is borne. Nectar is secreted through the single-layered epidermis surrounding three nectary slits and nectar release occurs through three openings located at the base of the gynophore, which are the outlets of the ducts connected to the nectary slits. The expanded and fused bases of the stamen filaments and the tepals participate in secondary nectar presentation. In the flowers of Allium aflatunense, numerous purple elements: tepals, filaments, style and pedicle, perform the role of a colour attractant. On the intensely green ovary, there occur glistening conical outgrowths of epidermal cells, which may also function as signal attractants.
The structure of septal nectaries in Asphodelus aestivus flowers was investigated by using light microscopy (LM), scanning electron microscopy (SEM) and transmission electron microscopy (EM). It was found that the outlets of the three parts of the nectary were situated on the ovary surface at 2/3 of its height and had the shape of elongated openings. The nectariferous tissue was in the septa of the lower part of the ovary. The secretory tissue cells formed 1-3 layers surrounding the nectary slits. They contained thin cell walls with the cuticle layer from the slit side, large cell nuclei, numerous mitochondria and plastids characterised by various shapes. In plastids, small starch grains occurred sporadically. At the beginning of anthesis, the cells were poorly vacuolized. ER cisternae and secretory vesicles were located near the outer cell wall. Fibrous substance was present in the nectary slits. In the subglandular tissue, numerous starch grains occurred at the beginning of anthesis. In this zone, cells containing raphides and xylem elements were observed. Based on the ultrastructure of the nectary it can be stated that granulocrine nectar secretion occurs in A. aestivus.
A study of Hosta fortunei Baker L. H. Bailey (Funkiaceae) flowers was conducted in the years 2007 – 2008. The flower life span and flowering duration as well as the nectar production rate were determined. The structure of the tissues of the stigma and nectary was investigated using stereoscopic, light and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). The plants flowered over a period of five weeks. Flowers of H. fortunei lived two days, on the average. Developed a pistil with an elongated ovary terminating in a discal stigma. On the surface of the stigma, unicellular glandular trichomes grew densely, composed of a stalk with a length of 113 – 213 μm and a head which was characterised by a large diameter range of 54 – 96 μm. The cuticle on the apical surface of a part of the trichomes was smooth, whereas it was striated on the stalk. Their protoplast was characterised by dense cytoplasm and weak vacuolisation. In the head of the trichomes fatty substances were accumulated. Septal nectaries occurred in the ovary of the superior pistil. Nectar was exuded onto the surface through three openings, situated in the upper part of the ovary of the pistil. At these places, epidermal cells formed a smooth or slightly wrinkled cuticle. The outer walls of the cells of the epidermis covering the duct accumulating nectar were thick. The glandular tissue of the nectary was made up of 2 layers of different-shaped, thin-walled cells and a deeply stained protoplast. They contained dense cytoplasm and a large, frequently lobate nucleus. At the final stage of secretion, fine vacuoles were observed in the cytoplasm of the glandular cells. Nectar secretion was abundant. In its initial stage, secretion droplets, increasing during the activity of the glandular tissue, were observed on the epidermis surface around the nectar openings. The weight of nectar from 10 flowers was 92.41 mg. The sugar concentration in the nectar was within a range of 23% – 30%, with an average value of 26%. Sugar yield was 23.83 mg/from 10 flowers.
