Overview

This investigation shows unique floral volatile profiles affect pollinator attraction in Bidens species, indicating implications for invasive plant behavior.

Key Points

  • Bidens pilosa var. radiata attracted more pollinators than self-compatible species.
  • A total of 37, 33, and 34 floral volatile compounds were identified in the three species.
  • (E)- and (Z)-β-Ocimene were significantly higher in pollinator-attracting Bidens pilosa var. radiata.
