Trichomes (/ ˈtraɪkoʊmz, ˈtrɪkoʊmz /; from Ancient Greek τρίχωμα (tríkhōma) ' hair ') are fine outgrowths or appendages on plants, algae, lichens, and certain protists. They are of diverse structure and function. Examples are hairs, glandular hairs, scales, and papillae.

2021年2月1日 · Trichomes play a key role in the development of plants and exist in a wide variety of species. In this paper, it was reviewed that the structure and morphology characteristics of trichomes, alongside the biological functions and classical regulatory mechanisms of trichome development in plants.

Some of the epidermal cells of most plants grow out in the form of hairs or trichomes. They may be found singly or less frequently in groups. They may be unicellular or multicellular and occur in various forms. They vary from small protuberances of the epidermal cells to complex branched or stellate multicellular structures.

2021年7月1日 · Plant glandular trichomes (GTs) are epidermal outgrowths with the capacity to biosynthesize and secrete specialized metabolites, that are of great scientific and practical significance. Our...

Plant trichomes, protrusions formed from specialized aboveground epidermal cells, provide protection against various biotic and abiotic stresses. Trichomes can be unicellular, bicellular or multicellular, with multiple branches or no branches at all.

2024年1月1日 · Trichomes serve as a protective shield, defending plants from extreme temperatures, UV radiation, and insect attacks. Their development involves complex signaling pathways and cellular adaptability, determining whether cells …

2019年4月22日 · In plants, trichomes are single or multicellular epidermal appendages on the aerial parts of the plant (Figure 1A). They have diverse biological functions, including helping the plant protect itself against herbivores, UV irradiation and water loss.

2021年2月1日 · Background: Trichomes play a key role in the development of plants and exist in a wide variety of species. Results: In this paper, it was reviewed that the structure and morphology characteristics of trichomes, alongside the biological functions and classical regulatory mechanisms of trichome development in plants.

2004年6月1日 · Plant leaf hairs, or trichomes, serve as an excellent model system to study all aspects of plant differentiation at the single-cell level, including the choice of cell fate, developmental...

2016年7月1日 · During the long history of evolution, plants have formed both non-glandular and glandular trichomes. Non-glandular trichomes function to reduce heat load, increase tolerance to freezing or...
