Title: The lord of the trichomes

Description: Trichomes are spike-like structures that protect the leaves from freezing, insects and even mammals. They have secret secondary metabolites that can be stinky (repel insects), sticky (capture insects), itchy (defense against herbivorous) or seductive (attract insect-predators). Hence, trichomes are the plant chemical weapons at the front line of the battle.
