Variation in the degree of pectin methylesterification during the development of Baccharis dracunculifolia kidney-shaped gall.

Insect galls may be study models to test the distribution of pectins and arabinogalactan-proteins (AGPs) and their related functions during plant cell cycles. These molecules are herein histochemically and immunocitochemically investigated in the kidney-shaped gall induced by Baccharopelma dracuncul...
