  1. The peak numbers are according to Fig. 3b
  2. aThe fragments are listed in the order of decreasing relative abundance. The first one is the base peak. Only fragments above 5% relative abundance are listed. Fragments containing the 2-AA label and the reducing end are printed in bold
  3. b H hexose, P pentose, U uronic acid, U me 4-O-methyl uronic acid, U u hexenuronic acid, A uronamide, A me 4-O-methyl uronamide, A u hexenuronamide. If pentosyl and hexosyl residues were present in an oligosaccharide, the reducing end is indicated in brackets
  4. cAnnotation based on heteroxylan nomenclature [15]
