2. Figure 1 Xyloglucan structures.
Structures of common xyloglucan oligosaccharide units found in different xyloglucans. The structural nomenclature (X, L etc) (Fry et al., 1993) is explained in the text. Glycosyl residues that may have O-acetyl substitution in xyloglucans in cell walls are indicated with an asterisk*.

5. Figure 4 Xyloglucan structural variation in relation to phylogeny.
Summary of structural variation of xyloglucans in monocotyledons in relation to monocotyledon phylogeny (adapted from Chase et al., 2006). Families that are underlined were investigated in the present study. XGO, Xyloglucan oligosaccharide; + and − indicate the presence or absence of a component; aPresent in only very small proportions in Ananas comosus; bPresent in only small proportions; cZantedeschia aethiopica; dLemna minor.
