Antifungal potency and modes of action of a novel olive tree defensin against closely related ascomycete fungal pathogens

2019-07-16

Abstract excerpt

Antimicrobial peptides play a pivotal role in the innate immunity of plants. Defensins are cysteine-rich antifungal peptides with multiple mechanisms of action (MOA). A novel Oleaceae -specific defensin gene family was discovered in the genome sequences of the wild and cultivated species of a perennial olive tree, Olea europaea . Antifungal properties of an olive tree defensin OefDef1.1 were investigated against...
