Danh từ
Số nhiều: nectaries
This term is a technical botanical descriptor used primarily in scientific, academic, or horticultural contexts. It describes the specific anatomical structure responsible for nectar production, distinguishing the gland itself from the nectar it secretes.
Because it refers to a specific biological organ, it is used in descriptive biological texts rather than casual conversation. It is often paired with adjectives describing its location, such as basal or septal, to specify where the gland is situated within the flower's anatomy.
