β-1,3-Glucan in Developing Cotton Fibers: Structure, Localization, and Relationship of Synthesis to That of Secondary Wall Cellulose

Evidence is presented for the existence of a noncellulosic β-1,3-glucan in cotton fibers. The glucan can be isolated as distinct fractions of varying solubility. When fibers are homogenized rigorously in aqueous buffer, part of the total β-1,3-glucan is found as a soluble polymer in homogenates free...
