Cotton Fiber Cell Walls of Gossypium hirsutum and Gossypium barbadense Have Differences Related to Loosely-Bound Xyloglucan
Figure 5
Colorimetric intensity values from immuno-dot-assays of epitopes within cell wall polymers extracted from G. hirsutum and G. barbadense fiber at 10, 19, 24, and 30 DPA by hot acidic water.
Antibody probes used were: (A) CCRC-M1 recognizing fucosylated XG epitopes and (B) CCRC-M58 recognizing non-fucosylated XG epitopes. Data points are the means (± SE) of 3 biological replications, and asterisks indicate that means from the two species at that DPA are significantly different as determined by T test (**p≤0.01).
