Plant specialized metabolites are often synthesized and stored in dedicated morphological structures such as glandular trichomes, resin ducts, or laticifers where they accumulate in large concentrations. How this high productivity is achieved is still elusive, in particular, with respect to the interface between primary and specialized metabolism. Here, we focus on glandular trichomes to survey recent progress in understanding how plant metabolic cell factories manage to balance homeostasis of essential central metabolites while producing large quantities of compounds that constitute a metabolic sink. In particular, we review the role of gene duplications, transcription factors and photosynthesis.
