The cellulose- and pectin-rich plant cell wall defines structure, mediates defense against pathogens, facilitates adhesion. An adhesion mutant screen of Arabidopsis hypocotyls identified a new allele QUASIMODO2 (QUA2), gene required for pectin accumulation whose mutants have reduced content defects. A suppressor qua2 was also isolated describes null SABRE (SAB), which encodes previously describ...
