Enzymology of monoterpene functionalization in glandular trichomes [PDF]
Journal of Experimental Botany, 2019 The plant kingdom supports an extraordinary chemical diversity, with terpenoids representing a particularly diversified class of secondary (or specialized) metabolites. Volatile and semi-volatile terpenoids in the C10-C20 range are often formed in specialized cell types and secretory structures.

Higher Elevations Tend to Have Higher Proportion of Plant Species With Glandular Trichomes
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2021 Glandular trichomes are well known to participate in plant chemical and physical defenses against herbivores, especially herbivorous insects. However, little is known about large-scale geographical patterns in glandular trichome occurrence.

Transcriptome analysis of alfalfa glandular trichomes [PDF]
Planta, 2004 Glandular trichomes are a major site of plant natural product synthesis and accumulation for protection against insect predation. However, to date few studies have attempted to obtain a global view of trichome gene expression. Two contrasting approaches have been adopted to investigate genes expressed in glandular trichomes from alfalfa (Medicago ...
