Introduction to Trichomes:

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.

Functions of Trichomes:

1. Generally a dense covering of woolly trichomes controls the rate of transpiration.

2. They also reduce the heating effect of sunlight.

3. They aid in the protection of plant body from outer injurious agencies.
