TrichOME: A Comparative Omics Database for Plant Trichomes [PDF]
AbstractPlant secretory trichomes have a unique capacity for chemical synthesis and secretion and have been described as biofactories for the production of natural products. However, until recently, most trichome-specific metabolic pathways and genes involved in various trichome developmental stages have remained unknown.

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

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

New insights into the properties of pubescent surfaces: peach fruit as model [PDF]
The surface of peach (Prunus persica ‘Calrico’) is covered by a dense indumentum, which may serve various protective purposes. With the aim of relating structure to function, the chemical composition, morphology, and hydrophobicity of the peach skin was ...
