Scanning electron micrographs (SEMs)

	Mature wild-type trichome SEM of a mature wild-type trichome on an Arabidopsis leaf. Scale bar is 100 µm.
	itb1 leaf Environmental scanning electron microscopes can visualize living hydrated samples including live Arabidopsis plants. This ESEM shows developing trichomes on an itb1 mutant leaf. Scale bar is 100 µm.
	itb1 trichomes ESEM of mature trichomes on an itb1 mutant leaf. ITB1 encodes a regulator of actin polymerization. Mutations in ITB1 cause cell expansion defects in trichomes and epidermal pavement cells. Scale bar is 50 µm.
	Developing itb1 trichome ESEM of a developing trichome on an itb1 mutant leaf. Scale bar is 20 µm.
	Mature frc2 trichome cryo SEM of a mature trichome on a frc2 mutant leaf. FRC2 encodes a katanin protein that regulates microtubule organization and cell expansion. Scale bar is 115 µm.

Confocal Images

itb1 trichome Composite confocal image of a developing trichome on an itb1 mutant plant. The trichome was treated with fluorescently labeled antibodies (green for microtubules and red for actin) and a dye that stains the nucleus blue.
