Staminal hairs increase pollinator attraction and pollination accuracy in (Commelinaceae).

Staminal hairs are the particular appendages of stamens, which may affect pollinator foraging behaviour and pollen transfer. However, experimental evidence of the functions of staminal hairs in pollination remains scarce. Here, we conducted staminal hair manipulation experiments in (Commelinaceae) to investigate their effects on visitation and pollen transfer by bees.
