Immunocytochemical evidence for the involvement of golgi apparatus in the deposition of seed lectin ofBauhinia purpurea (Leguminosae)
The seed lectin of the tree legume,Bauhinia purpurea alba, was localized by electron microscopic immunocytochemistry. The pattern of lectin deposition and site of intracellular localization was examined in mid- t...

In vivo Peroxidase Inhibitor in Bush Bean (Phaseolus vulgaris)Leaves
RECENT reports from this laboratory described a peroxidase enzyme from bush bean roots which catalysed the oxidative decarboxylation of oxaloacetate (OAA) to malonate1–3. Attempts to demonstrate this enzyme in cr...
