The nightshade proteinase inhibitor IIb gene is constitutively expressed in glandular trichomes. Liu J, Xia KF, Zhu JC, Deng YG, Huang XL, Hu BL, Xu X, Xu ZF. Plant Cell Physiol. 2006 Sep;47(9):1274-84. ...... Overexpression of SaPIN2b in tobacco resulted in a significant increase in glandular trichome density and promotion of trichome branching. These results suggest that, as well as being an induced defensive protein of the well-known PIN2 family, SaPIN2b could also play roles in trichome-based defense by functioning as a constitutive component of trichome chemical defense and/or by regulating the development of glandular trichomes. ...... |
