On the principal open subscheme , the induced morphism of sheaves is the ring homomorphismIf is injective, this map is injective by exactness of localization: it is the localization of the injective -module map . Explicitly, if the displayed fraction vanishes, some power of annihilates ; injectivity gives , so the original fraction also vanishes. The principal opens form an open basis, so the kernel sheaf is zero on a basis and hence zero everywhere. Conversely, an injective morphism of sheaves induces an injection on global sections. On the whole affine scheme these sections are , exactly . Thus
