植物表皮毛发育分子调控机制的研究进展

植物表皮毛在环境和植物相互作用中起到缓冲区域的重要作用,而细胞发育分化的独特性使其成为研究细胞发育调控和细胞命运决定等过程的最佳体系。近年来,随着分子生物学等技术的快速发展,植物表皮毛发育分子调控机制的研究发展较快。特别是模式植物拟南芥的部分关键的调控基因已经被克隆并获得其功能信息,为其他植物复杂表皮毛的研究和农业应用提供了理论指导。该研究主要以表皮毛发育时间的先后顺序综述该领域的研究进展、影响因素和其他植物表皮毛研究的现状,以期为大众和研究者提供比较全面的有关植物非分泌型表皮毛分子调控研究的进展信息。

Research Progress of Molecular Regulation Mechanism in the Development of Plant Trichomes

The trichome is one of the core factors to protect plant from the environmental stress conditions and acts as buffer zone between plant surface and environment. Furthermore, the specificity of developmental and differentiation of the trichome cell make it one of the optimal system to study the regulation of cell development and cell fate determination. Recently, the development of the molecular regulation mechanism of trichome developed quickly with the improvement of the techniques in life science, specially in Molecular Biology. Some genes related to trichome have been cloned from modern plant Arabiopsis and their functions are also known well now. Those results provide the theoretical guidance for complex trichomes in plants and agricultural breeding. In this review, we want to show the molecular regulation of trichome development by its developing time, the factors that effecting trichome development, and the development of the trichome in other plants. Thus we hope this review would offer the recent developmental information of the plant trichome without secretary gland to people and researchers.
