Cell-wall carbohydrates of the endosperm of the seed of Gleditsia triacanthos

The endosperm of the seed of Gleditsia triacanthos L. contains 18.55% of its dry weight as nonreserve, cell-wall carbohydrates. Of this carbohydrate material, comprising mainly mannose, galactose, and glucose, 76.1% was of low-molecular weight or highly hydrophilic. Mannose, galactose, and glucose w...
