Combating fungal phytopathogen with human salivary antimicrobial peptide histatin 5 through a multi-target mechanism
2023-06-05
Abstract excerpt
Blast disease caused by Magnaporthe oryzae is a major contributor to decreased crop yield and rice production globally. The use of chemical fungicides to combat crop pathogens is not only unsafe but also promotes the emergence of pathogenic variants, leading to recurrent host infections. To address plant diseases, antimicrobial peptides have emerged as a promising alternative as they are effective, safe, and biode...
