109 results about "Trichome" patented technology

Trichomes (/ˈtraɪkoʊmz/ or /ˈtrɪkoʊmz/), from the Greek τρίχωμα (trichōma) meaning "hair", are fine outgrowths or appendages on plants, algae, lichens, and certain protists. They are of diverse structure and function. Examples are hairs, glandular hairs, scales, and papillae. A covering of any kind of hair on a plant is an indumentum, and the surface bearing them is said to be pubescent.

System For Producing Terpenoids In Plants

The invention concerns a method for producing terpenes of interest in plants having glandular trichomes, as well as plants useful for producing said terpenes of interest. Said plants comprise a sequence encoding a heterologous terpene synthase under the control of a promoter enabling it to be specifically expressed in the trichomes. Moreover, the pathway for producing endogenous diterpenes is preferably blocked in the trichomes of the plants, to increase the flow in the heterologous pathway. The secretion of heterologous terpenes is spontaneous resulting in easy collection. The present invention also concerns plants exhibiting a blocked production of a compound having antibiotic properties at the surface of leaves exhibiting enhanced efficiency of transformation by a bacterium.

Method of Plant Resin Separation and Extraction

A process for trichome separation from plant matter deploys an ionic brine to induce oedemic transformation of disk cell to aid in releasing glandular trichomes. The brine can be agitated to further release disk cells from the plant tissue. The disk cell debris can be separated by sieving the larger trichomes and plant tissue particles that results from agitation and maceration. If the brine concentration is appropriately modified, the trichomes will float and the brine and the plant tissue fragments sink. The floating trichomes are then removed and rinsed and then dried or extracted further after drying.
