## Abstract The cell walls of rind, parenchyma and vascular bundle fractions of pearl millet (__Pennisetum glaucum__ (L) R Br) were isolated from two brown midrib mutants and their normal (N) near‐isogeneic line. The walls were sequentially treated with 1 M NaOH at 25°C for 20 h to determine ester‐
