Role of trichomes on leaves and pods for imparting resistance in chickpea [Cicer arientinum (L.)] genotypes against Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2017
In chickpea, trichomes provide a potential resistance mechanism against Helicoverpa armigera (Hübner). The present study was conducted to evaluate the trichome density and trichome length on leaves and pods on nine genotypes of chickpea.

Chitosan‐induced modulation of secondary metabolism and stress tolerance in Salvia rosmarinus under combined drought and heat stress

open access: yesJournal of the Science of Food and Agriculture, EarlyView.
Abstract BACKGROUND Abiotic stresses, particularly drought and elevated temperatures, negatively affect plant physiological and metabolic processes. This study investigated the effects of drought, heat, and combined stress on Salvia rosmarinus (rosemary), and evaluated foliar‐applied chitosan as a biostimulant.

A Highly Efficient System for Separating Glandular and Non-glandular Trichome of Cucumber Fruit for Transcriptomic and Metabolomic Analysis

open access: yesBio-Protocol
Cucumber (Cucumis sativus) trichomes play a critical role in resisting external biological and abiotic stresses. Glandular trichomes are particularly significant as they serve as sites for the synthesis and secretion of secondary metabolites, while non ...

Development of Peltate Glandular Trichomes of Peppermint [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2000
Cryofixation and conventional chemical fixation methods were employed to examine the ultrastructure of developing peltate glandular trichomes of peppermint (Mentha x piperita). Our results are discussed in relation to monoterpene production and the mechanism of essential oil secretion.

Trichome Formation: Gibberellins on the Move [PDF]

open access: yesPlant Physiology, 2016
Plant trichomes are specialized epidermal protrusions that, depending on species, are located on the surfaces of leaves, stems, petioles, sepals, seed coats, and other aerial organs. Trichomes not only defend plants against biotic and environmental hazard, but also are able to synthesize, store ...

Roles of trichomes with silica particles on the surface of leaves in Aphananthe aspera

open access: yesAIP Advances, 2013
There exist many trichomes with silica particles on the surface of leaves in Aphananthe aspera (Muku tree). The size of the trichomes is on the order of some tens to hundreds of micrometers.

Nictaba homologs from Arabidopsis thaliana are involved in plant stress responses [PDF]

open access: yes, 2018
Plants are constantly exposed to a wide range of environmental stresses, but evolved complicated adaptive and defense mechanisms which allow them to survive in unfavorable conditions.
