Abstract
A 32kD protein (designated AP 1) that inhibits Ralstonia solanacearum was purified from a bacterial-wilt (BW) resistant potato variety, MS-42.3. The biochemical characterization, antimicrobial spectrum, and ultra-structural localization of AP 1 were investigated. AP 1 might be a new kind of plant specific constitutive disease-resistance protein and that could shed new light on theoretical and applied research on plant disease resistance.
