Overview on pectin and mucilage labeling in Netrium digitus in correlation to cell growth

Antibody	Specificity	Labeling
JIM 5	Middle to low methyl esterified pectins (up to 40% esterified)^a	CW in general, stronger staining at growth zones in cell center and tips, mucilage vesicles. Enhanced labeling after de-esterification
JIM7	Middle to high methyl esterified pectins (15% to 80% esterified)^a	Growing zones of CW at cell center and tips. Labeling diminishes after de-esterification
2F4	De-esterified pectins^a	Labeling only after de-esterification at whole CW
Anti-mucilage	Mucilage	Newly formed tips after cell division, non-growing zones before division, dictyosomes, secretory vesicles
