Floral scent variation in the Pyrola rotundifolia complex in Scandinavia and Western Greenland
The variation in floral scent composition within and among populations of four taxa belonging to the Pyrola rotundifolia complex was analyzed using Principal Component Analysis. Two major groups were recognized, P. norvegica and P. grandiflora on the one side and P. rotundifolia s. str. on the other...
