Abstract:Cotton fiber length and strength are key determinants of its quality. Dynamic changes in the pectin, xyloglucan, xylan, and cellulose polysaccharide epitopes content during fiber growth contribute to complex remodeling of fiber cell wall (CW) and quality. Detailed knowledge about polysaccharide compositional and structural alteration in the fiber during fiber elongation and strengthening is vastly limited. Here, large-scale glycome profiling coupled with fiber phenotype and transcriptome profiling was conducte… Show more
