Description
This dataset contains data used in the analyses performed in the article entitled "Nectar chemistry is not only a plant’s affair: floral visitors affect nectar sugar and amino acid composition". The Excel file contains three sheets. 'Raw data' contains concentration of sugars, amino acids, pollen grains and yeast cells measured in several flowers and plants of Gentiana lutea subsp. symphyandra, belonging to different experimental treatments. 'Amino acid diversity' contains the concentration of specific protein and non-protein amino acids found in a subset of the above mentioned flowers. 'Pollen suspension test' contains the concentration of the same amino acids found in nectar after suspension of pollen of G. lutea at different time intervals (0, 1, 4, and 24 hours).
