Fluorescence imaging of cell walls in equivalent transverse sections of the second internode of stems of <i>M</i>.

<div><p><b><i>x </i><i>giganteus</i>, <i>M</i></b>. <b><i>sacchariflorus</i> and <i>M. sinensis</i> at 50 days growth. </b></p> <p>Images generated with Calcofluor White (CW, blue) and indirect immunofluorescence (green) with monoclonal antibodies to epitopes of heteroxylan LM10, LM11 and LM12. e = epidermis, p = parenchyma, vb = vascular bundle. Arrowheads indicate phloem. Arrows indicate regions of interfascicular parenchyma that have relatively lower levels of heteroxylan detection. Bar = 100 µm.</p>
