Abstract
Mikkelsen et al. demonstrate molecular and cellular evidence of the evolution of xyloglucan (XyG), a structural component of the cell walls of most land plants, in charophyte algae. This study describes the structure of XyG in charophyte algae, including identification of fucosylated XyG, and furthermore identifies orthologs required to produce XyG.
