| Addtional Information | FUNCTION:Plant defense peptide with antifungal activity against F.oxysporum and B.cinerea. Retards the growth of the Lepidopteran insect pests H.armigera and H.punctigera.BIOPHYSICOCHEMICAL PROPERTIES:pH dependence: Stable under extremes of pH; Temperature dependence: Stable under extremes of temperature;TISSUE SPECIFICITY:Most abundant in the epidermal cell layers of the petals and sepals, within the connective cells of the anthers, and the cortical cells of the style. Not detected in the tapetum, pollen mother cells, the transmitting tissue, the vascular bundles of the anther and style or in leaves. Expressed also in ovaries, but barley detectable in roots.SIMILARITY:Belongs to the plant defensin family. |
