Leaf trichomes can alleviate water deficit stress and maintain diurnal photosynthesis by increasing leaf wetness and water absorption in Metrosideros polymorpha [PDF]

open access: hybridPlant Species Biology, EarlyView.
Leaf trichomes are often considered a key trait contributing to drought tolerance by increasing leaf wetness and enhancing foliar water uptake. However, their function has not been examined across a wide range of environmental conditions. Our field observations and manipulation experiments on Metrosideros polymorph—a species with trichomes that vary ...

Advances in the regulatory mechanisms of multicellular trichome formation and its secondary metabolite synthesis in vegetable crops

open access: yesVegetable Research, 2023
Trichomes are specialized epidermal appendages, which can be divided into glandular or non-glandular types based on their diverse morphology. The glands of glandular trichomes are responsible for the biosynthesis and storage of many natural metabolites ...

Morphological characterization of intraspecific variation for trichome traits in tomato (Solanum lycopersicum)

open access: yesBotanical Studies, 2023
Trichomes, the hairlike protuberances in plants, have been well known to act as the first line of defense against herbivores, and abiotic stresses, along with other structural defenses such as spines, thorns, and waxes.

Overexpression of CsMIXTA, a Transcription Factor from Cannabis sativa, Increases Glandular Trichome Density in Tobacco Leaves

open access: yesPlants, 2022
Cannabinoids are synthesized in glandular stalked trichomes on the female flowers of Cannabis sativa (cannabis). The regulation of glandular trichome development has not been characterized in cannabis.

AaCycTL Regulates Cuticle and Trichome Development in Arabidopsis and Artemisia annua L.

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Artemisinin is an important drug for resistance against malaria. Artemisinin is derived from the glandular trichome of leaves, stems, or buds of the Chinese traditional herb Artemisia annua.

Insecticidal Activity of Nicotiana benthamiana Trichome Exudates on the Sweetpotato Whitefly Bemisia tabaci MED (Gennadius)

open access: yesAgrochemicals, 2023
Trichome is a hair-like structure involved in mechanical and chemical defenses of plants against herbivorous insects. Nicotiana benthamiana, a wild tobacco plant, has well-developed glandular trichomes that secrete sugar esters with potent repellent and ...

The IRREGULAR TRICHOME BRANCH loci regulate trichome elongation in Arabidopsis [PDF]

open access: yesPlant and Cell Physiology, 2005
The proper control of cell expansion is vital to plant development. It is responsible for shaping individual cells and, together with cell division, it plays a lead role in shaping plant organs. Much of the underlying mechanism by which plant cells expand anisotropically is not understood. We are taking a genetic approach to cell expansion by isolating

Genetic evidence suggests that GIS functions downstream of TCL1 to regulate trichome formation in Arabidopsis

open access: yesBMC Plant Biology, 2018
Background Trichome formation in Arabidopsis is regulated by a MBW complex formed by MYB, bHLH and WD40 transcriptional factors, which can activate GLABRA2 (GL2) and the R3 MYB transcription factor genes.
