Mercury-induced Ethylene Formation and Abscission in Citrus and Coleus Explants.

abstract：:Aps-1 encodes acid phosphatase-1, one of the many acid phosphatases present in tomato (Lycopersicon esculentum Mill.). Aps-1 is closely linked to Mi, a gene conferring resistance against nematodes. Thus, a clone of Aps-1 would provide access to the region of the genome containing Mi. Acid phosphatase-1 was purified fr...
