Mucilage Polysaccharide Composition and Exudation in Maize From Contrasting Climatic Regions
Frontiers in Plant Science, 2020 Mucilage, a gelatinous substance comprising mostly polysaccharides, is exuded by maize nodal and underground root tips. Although mucilage provides several benefits for rhizosphere functions, studies on the variation in mucilage amounts and its ...

The micro- and nanoscale spatial architecture of the seed mucilage-Comparative study of selected plant species. [PDF]
PLoS ONE, 2018 The seed coat mucilage envelope is formed just after hydration and surrounds the seed as a gel-like, transparent capsule. The mucilage envelope represents a special type of modified cell wall with all of the typical polysaccharides i.e.

Seed Mucilage: Biological Functions and Potential Applications in Biotechnology
, 2021 In plants, the diaspore (seed dispersal unit) may include a seed coat and/or a pericarp to protect the embryo and assist in dispersion. In many species, the seed coat and/or pericarp secretes a gelatinous mixture of cell wall polysaccharides known as ...

Accumulation of Al in Root Mucilage of an Al-Resistant and an Al-Sensitive Cultivar of Wheat [PDF]
, 1996 To estimate rates of Al accumulation within the symplasm, all apoplastic pools of Al need to be eliminated or accounted for. We have developed a revised kinetic protocol that allows us to estimate the contribution of mucilage-bound Al to total ...
