Molecular evolution of dimeric α-amylase inhibitor genes in wild emmer wheat and its ecological association

BACKGROUND: α-Amylase inhibitors are attractive candidates for the control of seed weevils, as these insects are highly dependent on starch as an energy source. In this study, we aimed to reveal the structure and diversity of dimeric α-amylase inhibitor genes in wild emmer wheat from Israel and to e...
