Abstract/OtherAbstract:
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 were also the major sugar components of the polysaccharides extracted with alkali (23.1% of the cell-wall), while the same sugars, with minor amounts of arabinose, form the residues. Methylation analysis of the polysaccharides and the borate-sodium hydroxide residue indicate that the cell walls are built up on a network of galactomannans, with high Man/Gal ratios, reinforced with minor amounts of cellulose.
