Based on the International Symposium on [title], sponsored by the USDA-Agricultural Research Service and the US Dairy Forage Resource Center, and held in Madison, Wisconsin, October 1991. The 27 papers are arranged within seven sections: perspective, analytical techniques for plant cell walls, structure of forage cell walls, cell wall matrix interactions and degradation, microbial and molecular mechanisms of cell wall degradation, cell wall degradation in the ruminant, and mechanisms for altering cell wall utilization.
