Division of labour between dimorphic stamens in Melastoma candidum (Melastomataceae): Role of stamen strength in the biomechanics of pollination

The division of labour hypothesis suggests that plants exhibiting heteranthery utilise different stamen types for distinct purposes; feeding stamens provide pollen as a reward for pollinators, whereas pollinating stamens ensure successful reproduction. However, the biomechanical factors that influen...
