The overlooked functions of trichomes: Water absorption and metal detoxication.

Plant, Cell and Environment, 2022
Trichomes are epidermal outgrowths on plant shoots. Their roles in protecting plants against herbivores and in the biosynthesis of specialized metabolites have long been recognized.

Dew absorption by leaf trichomes in Caragana korshinskii: An alternative water acquisition strategy for withstanding drought in arid environments.

Physiologia Plantarum : An International Journal for Plant Biology, 2021
Investigating plant morphological traits can provide insights into plant drought tolerance. To date, many papers have focused on plant hydraulic responses to drought during dehydration, but atmospheric water absorption by trichomes to mitigate drought ...

Hair (H) interacts with SlZFP8-like to regulate the initiation and elongation of trichomes by modulating SlZFP6 expression in tomato.

Journal of Experimental Botany, 2021
Trichomes are specialized glandular or non-glandular structures that provide physical or chemical protection against insect and pathogens attack. Trichomes in Arabidopsis, as typical non-glandular structures, have been extensively studied.

Comparative ultrastructure of trichomes on various organs of Rosa roxburghii

Microscopy research and technique (Print), 2021
Chestnut rose, R. roxburghii Tratt. (Rosaceae) (RR) is an important crop in China due to its nutritional and medicinal values. RR frequently produces trichomes on the surfaces of a diverse range of organs, however a genetic component exists to the ...

Non-glandular silicified trichomes are essential for rice defense against chewing herbivores.

Plant, Cell and Environment, 2020
Interspecific NERICA (New rice for Africa) varieties have been recently developed and used in Sub-Saharan Africa but herbivore resistance properties of these plants remain poorly understood.

Trichomes in respiratory samples

Diagnostic Cytopathology, 2008
Trichomes (also named plant hairs) are tiny epidermal outgrowths with special functions found and covering the aerial surfaces of nearly all plants. They are uni or multicellular, branched, or unbranched structures and can take many shapes and forms. Branched hairs can be dendritic (treelike), tufted, or stellate (star shaped).

Studies on the Trichomes of some Compositae II. Phylogeny and Classification

Nelumbo
On the basis of the evidences from structural patterns, modes of development and metamorphic variations, the vegetative trichomes of the Compositae are shown to consist of four systems viz., I. Filiform System II. Macroform System III.

Trichome Development in Arabidopsis

2010
Arabidopsis trichomes are giant single epidermal cells that are easily accessible for genetic, genomic and cell-biological analysis. They have therefore become a convenient model system to study developmental and physiological processes. Trichome studies are greatly facilitated by methods specifically applicable for this particular cell type.

Aerosol particles on tobacco trichomes

Nature, 1974
MARTELL1 has described a plausible chain of events by which atmospheric radioactivity is incorporated into insoluble particles that are deposited in the lungs of tobacco smokers. The subsequent long exposure of the lungs to alpha activity is a strong candidate for the cause of bronchial cancer.

Trichomes in Trifolieae

Proceedings / Indian Academy of Sciences, 1977
Trichomes of 39 species of Trifolieae belonging to six genera have been worked out. On the basis of structure they are classified into nine types and ontogeny of only four types could be studied. The structure and organographic distribution of each type has been described. All types of trichomes have been initiated from single initial cell.
