Cellulose Synthase-Like Genes of Rice1

Identification of the biosynthetic enzymes involved in cell wall biosynthesis remains one of the major unsolved problems of plant biology. Of the major polysaccharides of the plant cell wall, pectins and hemicelluloses are synthesized in the Golgi, and callose and cellulose are synthesized at the
