Trichomes affect grapevine leaf optical properties and thermoregulation
In the context of climate change, the optical properties of grapevine leaves have been used in imaging technologies to screen grapevine phenotypes...

Chemical and structural heterogeneity of olive leaves and their trichomes
Many biological surfaces have hairs, known as trichomes in plants. Here, the wettability and macro- and micro-scale features of olive leaves are...

Silicious trichomes as a trait that may slow down leaf decomposition by soil meso- and macrofauna
AimsThis study explored a possibility that leaf silicious trichomes slow down leaf mass loss by soil meso- and macrofauna.
MethodsWe focused on...

Applying quantitative spatial phenotypes analysis to the investigation of peltate glandular trichomes development pattern in Perilla frutescens
BackgroundGlandular trichomes, often referred to as “phytochemical factories”, plays a crucial role in plant growth and metabolism. As the site for...

Trichomes mediate plant–herbivore interactions in two Cucurbitaceae species through pre- and post-ingestive ways
Plant structural defenses such as trichomes exert a significant selection pressure on insect herbivores. However, whether variation in structural...

Trichomes and unique gene expression confer insect herbivory resistance in Vitis labrusca grapevines
BackgroundGrapevine ( Vitis ) is one of the world’s most valuable fruit crops, but insect herbivory can decrease yields. Understanding insect...

Glandular trichomes appear to function as an indirect defense in Chapmannia floridana
Sticky plant surfaces can entrap small insects, which attracts predatory arthropods that reduce herbivory such that glandular trichomes can function...

An Overview of Water and Nutrient Uptake by Epiphytic Bromeliads: New Insights into the Absorptive Capability of Leaf Trichomes and Roots
The presence of specific morphological structures, such as the formation of a tank and the presence of leaf absorbing trichomes, together with...

Leaf trichome-mediated predator effects on the distribution of herbivorous mites within a kidney bean plant
Some predators prefer to settle on leaf patches with microstructures (e.g., trichomes and domatia), leaving traces on the patches. Herbivorous...

Leaf secretory structures in Rosa lucieae (Rosaceae): two times of secretion—two ecological functions?
Secretory trichomes and colleters are two of the secretory structures whose exudates may cover the body of the plant. Such secretions comprise resins...

The GaKAN2, a KANADI transcription factor, modulates stem trichomes in Gossypium arboreum
Key messageGaKAN2 , a member of the KANADI family, was found to be widely expressed in the cotton tissues and regulates trichome development through...
