Front Plant Sci. 2021 Mar 03;12:629045. doi: 10.3389/fpls.2021.629045. eCollection 2021.

Eukaryotes most often synthesize storage polysaccharides in the cytosol or vacuoles in the form of either alpha (glycogen/starch)- or beta-glucosidic (chrysolaminarins and paramylon) linked glucan polymers. In both cases, the glucose can be packed either in water-soluble (glycogen and...
