Ebook: Cellulose: Biosynthesis and Structure

This monograph generalizes the mechanism of synthesis of cellulose and other cell wall polysaccharides in cotton and other plants. Sequence and cell localization of reactions of polysaccharide synthesis, dependence of its intensity on concentration of substrates, energy-rich phosphates, phytohormones, retardants, soil-climatic factors are the prime topics and conformational and morphological aspects of the structure of cellulose and its derivatives are discussed.
