Suspension cells of kidney bean were grown for 42 d in MS medium supplemented with growth regulators (2.0 mgL-1 2,4-D and 0.5 mgL-1 kinetin) or without At the stationary growth phase (42 d), the sugars were fractionated into the symplastic (ethanol and starch) and apoplastic [low-molecular pectin (lm-pectin), high-molecular pectin (hm-pectin), hemicellulose, and cellulose] sugars. The neutral sugars (NS) of hm-pectin and hemicellulose fractions were analyzed by GLC. The growth of the suspension cells in the liquid MS media, in terms of settled cell volume (SCV), remained similar, to the end of the experiment, irrespective of the presence or absence of growth regulators, indicating the nonnecessity of the exogenous growth regulators for the subculture. Total sugar (TS) of the ethanol fraction and NS of the Im-pectin of the suspension cells grown in the medium with growth regulators were higher than in the medium without growth regulators. However, starch content in the starch fraction and uronic acid (UA) content of the Im-pectin fraction did not exhibit any differences. From these results, it was suggested that the growth regulators modulated the structure of the cell wall polysaccharide. Analysis of the NS composition of the hm-pectin fractions revealed that the Rha, Arb, and Gal contents in the presence of growth regulators were higher than in the absence, while the Xyl, Man, and Glc contents in the presence of growth regulators were higher than in the absence, indicating the turnovers of rhamnogalacturonan and/or arabinogalactan. On the other hand, analysis of NS composition of hemicellulose fractions revealed that the Ara and Glc contents in the presence of growth regulators was higher than in the absence, whereas Xyl and Glc contents were nearly consistent, indicating the turnovers of arabinaogalactan I or II. The cellulose contents remained similar, irrespective of the presence (19.1%) or absence (18.7%) of growth regulators.
