Antifungal peptide recombinant DNA sequence vector biological system plant antifungal composition and process to combat fungi or bacteria

摘要

Antifungal peptides which comprise at least six amino acid residues identical to a run of amino acid residues found between position 21 and position 51 of the Rs-AFP2 antifungal protein sequence or of substantially homologous protein sequences. The peptides are useful for combating fungal diseases in agricultural, pharmaceutical or preservative applications.
