The impact of thermogenesis on the origin of insect pollination

Thermogenesis in plants is the ability to raise their temperature above that of the surrounding air through metabolic processes, and is especially detected in reproductive organs. Warming benefits plants by facilitating the transmission of odours and compounds that attract insects. As a result, thes...
