Table 2 Semi-quantitative determination of DE% in P5-3, PME01 and PME08 hypocotyl cell walls.

From: Restricted cell elongation in Arabidopsishypocotyls is associated with a reduced average pectin esterification level

  1. Hypocotyls were prepared after 2 d growing on control (no ethanol) or induction (0.1% ethanol) medium. DE% was derived from FTIR spectra (n = 20 to 21) for each genotype/treatment as described in Table 1. Average values are given ± SE.
