Fig. 2From: Comparison of four glycosyl residue composition methods for effectiveness in detecting sugars from cell walls of dicot and grass tissuesComparison of the glycosyl residue composition of leaf AIR from cell walls of Arabidopsis, Populus, rice, and switchgrass obtained by A–D GC–MS of alditol acetate derivatives; E–H the carbodiimide method; I–L GC–MS of TMS (trimethylsilane) derivatives; and M–P the HPAEC method. Data are average mol% monosaccharide quantified from two technical replicates of each of three biological replicates ± standard deviation, n = 6 [exceptions are three technical replicates for uronic acid assay (n = 9) and a single technical replicate for HPAEC method (n = 3)]. Monosaccharide abbreviations: arabinose (Ara), rhamnose (Rha), fucose (Fuc), xylose (Xyl), galacturonic acid (GalA), glucuronic acids (GlcA), mannose (Man), galactose (Gal), and glucose (Glc) Back to article page
