Abstract excerpt
Serine proteinase inhibitors (IP's) are proteins found naturally in a wide range of plants with a significant role in the natural defense system of plants against herbivores. The question addressed in the present study involves assessing the ability of the serine proteinase inhibitor in combating nematode infestation. The present study involves engineering a plant serine proteinase inhibitor (pin2) gene into T....
