Successful biochemical reactions in organisms necessitate compartmentalization of the
requisite components. Glandular trichomes (GTs) act as compartments for the synthesis and …

Glandular trichomes are epidermal outgrowths that are the site of biosynthesis and storage
of large quantities of specialized metabolites. Besides their role in the protection of plants …

Trichomes can be found on the surfaces of the leaves, stems, and other organs of many
angiosperm plants. Plant trichomes are commonly divided into two classes: glandular …

Glandular trichomes cover the surface of many plant species. They exhibit tremendous
diversity, be it in their shape or the compounds they secrete. This diversity is expressed …

Plant trichomes come in a variety of shapes, sizes and cellular composition. Some types,
commonly called glandular trichomes, produce large amounts of specialized (secondary) …

Background Rosette leaf trichomes of Arabidopsis thaliana have been broadly used to study
cell development, cell differentiation and, more recently, cell wall biogenesis. However …

Leaf glandular trichomes (epidermal hairs) actively synthesize secondary metabolites, many
of which are the frontline of plant defense. In Nicotiana tabacum, tall and short glandular …

Glandular trichomes are remarkable biochemical factories that produce a wealth of
secondary metabolites important for plant defenses against herbivores. However, little is …

Multicellular glandular trichomes are epidermal outgrowths characterized by the presence of
a head made of cells that have the ability to secrete or store large quantities of specialized …

Glandular trichomes (GTs) are outgrowths of plant epidermal cells that secrete and store
specialized secondary metabolites that protect plants against biotic and abiotic stresses and …
