Understanding polysaccharide production and properties using seed coat mutants: future perspectives for the exploitation of natural variants.

Annals of botany - 1 Oct 2014

North Helen M, Berger Adeline, Saez-Aguayo Susana, Ralet Marie-Christine

Abstract excerpt

BACKGROUND: The epidermal cells of the seed coat of certain species accumulate polysaccharides during seed development for cell wall reinforcement or release on imbibition to form mucilage. Seed-coat epidermal cells show natural variation in their structure and mucilage production, which could explain the diverse ecophysiological roles proposed for the latter. Arabidopsis mucilage mutants have proved to be an...
