Glandular trichomes on tomato plants serve as microscopic chemical factories that synthesize and accumulate acylsugars – specialised metabolites with diverse structures and potent defensive properties ...

腺毛（Glandular trichome）是植物在长期进化过程中为了应对生物和非生物环境胁迫而演化出来的特殊适应性结构，广泛分布于陆地植物（包括裸子植物、被子植物、苔藓植物）地上部分的表面，是植物分类学中的重要性状之一。植物腺毛是合成、积累和贮存各种 ...

Aromatic medicinal plants derive their therapeutic value from complex mixtures of volatile compounds, yet the genetic logic that shapes these chemical profiles has long remained elusive.

Five types of trichomes have been described in cultivated tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.): type-I is 2–3 mm long with a multicellular base and a glandular small cell in the tip; type-III is ...

Plant trichomes constitute a first line of defence against insect herbivores. The pre- and post-ingestive defensive functions of glandular trichomes are well documented and include direct toxidty, ...

Carnivorous plants are some of the most interesting lifeforms in the world. While most plants rely solely on sunlight and ...

Scientists have studied the trichomes (or "cellular factories") of the cannabis plant in extreme detail, revealing that flowers with mushroom-shaped hairs are the most potent—both in terms of smell ...
