Insect peptide metchnikowin confers on barley a selective capacity for resistance to fungal ascomycetes pathogens
The potential of metchnikowin, a 26-amino acid residue proline-rich antimicrobial peptide synthesized in the fat body of Drosophila melanogaster was explored to engineer disease resistance in barley against devastating fungal plant pathogens. The synthetic peptide caused strong in vitro growth inhib...
