- Title
Plant trichomes: a model for cell differentiation.
- Authors
Hülskamp, Martin
- Abstract
During the past few years, the focus in plant developmental biology has shifted from studying the organization of the whole body or individual organs towards the behaviour of the smallest unit of the organism, the single cell. 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 control of the cell cycle, cell polarity and the control of cell shape.
