Involvement of <it>S</it>-adenosylmethionine-dependent halide/thiol methyltransferase (HTMT) in methyl halide emissions from agricultural plants: isolation and characterization of an HTMT-coding gene from <it>Raphanus sativus </it>(daikon radish)

<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Biogenic emissions of methyl halides (CH<sub>3</sub>Cl, CH<sub>3</sub>Br and CH<sub>3</sub>I) are the major source of these compounds in the atmosphere; however, there are few reports about the hal...
