Foliar trichomes are specialized structures that have first contact with atmospheric particulate matter (PM), while their effects on PM accumulation are rarely investigated.

Morphology, structure and ontogeny of trichomes of the grape genus (Vitis, Vitaceae)
Trichomes are widely distributed on surfaces of different organs in the grape genus Vitis and are of taxonomic utility. To explore the morphology, structure and ontogeny of Vitis trichomes, we investigated the diversity and distribution of trichomes in ...

Sticky Exudates on the Inflorescences of \u3ci\u3eCirsium Discolor\u3c/i\u3e (Asteraceae) and \u3ci\u3ePenstemon Digitalis\u3c/i\u3e (Scrophulariaceae) as Possible Defense Against Seed Predators [PDF]
From 1982 through 1987, I investigated whether sticky exudates released by Cirsium discolor and Penstemon digitalis in their inflorescences provide defense against seed predators. I tested two hypotheses: 1: Exudates directly deter seed predators, and 2:

Microscopic investigation of trichomes of wild-growing Satureja montana L. [PDF]
Considering the importance of S. montana L. as a medicinal plant, due to the essential oils produced in its glandular trichomes, and the lack of data about the leaf ultrastructure and micromorphology, we have carried out a comprehensive study of ...

Above- and belowground herbivory jointly impact defense and seed dispersal traits in Taraxacum officinale [PDF]
Plants are able to cope with herbivores by inducing defensive traits or growth responses that allow them to reduce or avoid the impact of herbivores. Since above- and belowground herbivores differ substantially in life-history traits, for example feeding

Cell polarity in Arabidopsis trichomes [PDF]
Arabidopsis leaf trichomes are unicellular hairs that display a highly characteristic cell form that has a fixed orientation with respect to the basal-distal leaf axis. The genetic, molecular and cell biological analysis of trichome morphogenesis reveal that various cellular processes need to be coordinated including regulation of the cell cycle, the ...

Micromorphology and distribution of glandular and non-glandular trichomes on the above-ground organs of Inula helenium L. were investigated using light and scanning electron microscopy (SEM). Two types of biseriate glandular trichomes, i.e.

Arthropods Utilizing Sticky Inflorescences of \u3ci\u3eCirsium Discolor\u3c/i\u3e and \u3ci\u3ePenstemon Digitalis\u3c/i\u3e [PDF]
Cirsium discolor (Muhl) Spreng (Asteraceae) and Penstemon digitalis Nutt. (Scrophulariaceae) produce sticky material only in their inflorescences. While there is a wealth of printed information concerning such sticky traps occurring in other parts of ...

Coleoptera claws and trichome interlocking
Abstract The present study tests the hypothesis that the specialized claws with a basal tooth found in some coccinellid beetles represent an adaptation to interlock with flexible unbranched trichomes of different plants. We compared the attachment ability of three Coleoptera species, Chnootriba elaterii, Harmonia axyridis (both Coleoptera ...

Proteomics dataset on detached and purified Arabidopsis thaliana rosette leaf trichomes
Trichomes are highly specialized uni- or multicellular outgrowths of epidermal cells of plant organs that, in the case of leaves, contribute to plant resistance against abiotic and biotic stress.
