Nectar and oleiferous trichomes as floral attractants in Bulbophyllum saltatorium Lindl. (Orchidaceae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
Although many Orchidaceae have deceit flowers that produce no reward, the most common reward, when present, is nectar. Bulbophyllum, however, is unusual in that the labellar secretions of most species investigated to date lack sugars, and, therefore ...

RrTTG1 promotes fruit prickle development through an MBW complex in Rosa roxburghii

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2022
Fruit prickles are widely distributed on the pericarp and exhibit polymorphic traits at different developmental stages. Although they are multicellular appendages that are well-known for helping plants defend against biotic and abiotic stresses, their ...

The miR319a/TCP module and DELLA protein regulate synergistically trichome initiation and improve insect defenses in Populus tomentosa.

open access: yesNew Phytologist, 2020
Trichomes are specialized epidermal cells that contribute to plant resistance against herbivores. Their formation is controlled precisely by multiple genetic and environmental signals. Previous studies have shown that microRNA319 (miR319) and gibberellin

The Plant Ontology facilitates comparisons of plant development stages across species [PDF]

open access: yes, 2019
The Plant Ontology (PO) is a community resource consisting of standardized terms, definitions, and logical relations describing plant structures and development stages, augmented by a large database of annotations from genomic and phenomic studies.

Overexpression of bHLH95, a basic helix–loop–helix transcription factor family member, impacts trichome formation via regulating gibberellin biosynthesis in tomato

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2020
This work provides new insight into the regulation of trichome formation by gibberellin which has not previously been described in tomato.

Natural selection on plant resistance to herbivores in the native and introduced range [PDF]

open access: yes, 2015
. When plants are introduced into new regions, the absence of their co-evolved natural enemies can result in lower levels of attack. As a consequence of this reduction in enemy pressure, plant performance may increase and selection for resistance to ...

Between-Site Variation in Suitability of \u3ci\u3eSalix Cordata\u3c/i\u3e as a Host for \u3ci\u3eAltica Subplicata\u3c/i\u3e (Coleoptera: Chrysomelidae) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
To investigate local adaptation of insect herbivore populations to host plant populations, willow flea beetles (Altica subplicata) were collected from two distant sites in northern Michigan (Grass Bay, GB; Pte. Aux Chenes, PAC) and reared on host plants (

Interaction between two timing microRNAs controls trichome distribution in Arabidopsis.

open access: yesPLoS Genetics, 2014
The miR156-targeted squamosa promoter binding protein like (SPL) transcription factors function as an endogenous age cue in regulating plant phase transition and phase-dependent morphogenesis, but the control of SPL output remains poorly understood.

Fine Mapping of Leaf Trichome Density Revealed a 747-kb Region on Chromosome 1 in Cold-Hardy Hybrid Wine Grape Populations

open access: yesFrontiers in Plant Science, 2021
Segregation for leaf trichome density was observed in a cold-hardy hybrid grape population GE1025 (N = ∼125, MN1264 × MN1246) that was previously used to detect a quantitative trait locus (QTL) underlying foliar phylloxera resistance on chromosome 14 ...

Class I TCP transcription factors regulate trichome branching and cuticle development in Arabidopsis.

open access: yesJournal of Experimental Botany, 2020
Trichomes and the cuticle are two specialized structures of the aerial epidermis important for plant organ development and interaction with the environment. In this study, we report that plants affected in the function of the class I TEOSINTE BRANCHED 1,
