a Volatile metabolome was performed for M82 and slnrc4a. Compound level was normalized to M82. Significantly different Sesquiterpenes, monoterpenes and phenylpropanoids are shown. Average ± SEM of three independent replicates is shown. Asterisks represent statistical significance in t-test with welch correction for each compound (*p-value < 0.05; **p-value < 0.01; ***p-value < 0.001). b Scanning electron microscope images of young M82 and slnrc4a leaves of Type VI glandular trichomes with four head cells. Arrowheads indicated type VI glandular trichome. Scale bar = 50 µm. c, d Trichome density and size was determined using ImageJ. Average ± SEM of three independent replicates is shown. Asterisks represent statistical significance in t-test with welch correction for each trichome type (***p-value < 0.001). c Boxplot with inter-quartile-ranges (box), medians (black line in box) and outer quartile whiskers, minimum to maximum values. d All individual values presented, line indicates mean.
