Trichome morphogenesis inArabidopsis

Philosophical Transactions of the Royal Society of London. Series B: Biological Sciences, 2000
Trichomes (plant hairs) inArabidopsis thalianaare large non–secreting epidermal cells with a characteristic three–dimensional architecture. Because trichomes are easily accessible to a combination of genetic, cell biological and molecular methods they have become an ideal model system to study various aspects of plant cell morphogenesis. In this review

Vitex oreadica and V. umbellata (Lamiaceae): two new species from Cerrado and Atlantic forest of Brazil

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Vitex L. is a pantropical genus of Lamiaceae comprising 209 taxa. Brazil harbors 35 species, representing nearly 50% of the genus richness in the Neotropics, with the Amazon showing the highest richness, followed by the Atlantic Forest and Cerrado domains. Nevertheless, most taxonomic studies of the genus have been conducted in Africa and Asia.

The role, regulation and application of plant fruit trichomes

Molecular Horticulture
Trichomes, hair-like specialized epidermal structures on the surface of most plant organs, play key roles in plant defense against herbivores, reducing water loss, and shielding plants from UV radiation, among other functions.

Trichomes of Nama (Hydrophyllaceae) That Produce Insect-active Compunds

, 1995
Nama hispidum, N. lobbii, N. rothrockii, and N. xylopodum have two basic types of trichomes on the adaxial and abaxial surfaces: glandular and nonglandular. Nama hispidum and N. xylopodum have (1) short semierect or intermediate-length acicular trichomes

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

Bio-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 ...

Novelty for the flora of Espírito Santo, Brazil: a new species of Ouratea Aubl. (Ochnaceae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Here, we describe and illustrate the new species Ouratea oberdanii Fraga & Deccache, which is named after Dr Oberdan José Pereira. This new species is found in the mountainous regions of the evergreen Atlantic Forest in the Brazilian state of Espírito Santo. Ouratea oberdanii is similar to O. linearis (A.Gray) Sastre & Offroy and O.

Trichome Formation: Gibberellins on the Move [PDF]

Plant 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 ...

A new combination in Strophopappus (Asteraceae, Vernonieae, Lepidaploinae)

Nordic Journal of Botany, EarlyView.
Revisions of herbarium collections reveal a new combination in Strophopappus (Asteraceae, Vernonieae, Lepidaploinae). Strophopappus comprises nine species occurring in South America, eight of which are endemic to Brazil. Currently, Vernonia riedeliana is treated as a synonym of Strophopappus bicolor.
