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

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

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 ...

Trichome Isolation and Integrity Test from Brassica villosa and Other Species
The outward growths from one or more epidermal cells are well known as trichomes (plant hair cells) (Levin, 1973; Mathur, 2006). Preparation of pure intact non-glandular trichomes from trichome-rich Brassica villosa depended on rendering the trichomes ...

Roles of trichomes in tea plant resistance against multiple abiotic and biotic stresses
Tea trichomes contribute significantly to tea flavors by providing diverse and specific flavor-determining metabolites, including catechins, caffeine, theanine, and volatiles.
