PCT No. PCT/IT92/00158 Sec. 371 Date Sep. 19, 1994 Sec. 102(e) Date Sep. 19, 1994 PCT Filed Dec. 4, 1992 PCT Pub. No. WO93/11241 PCT Pub. Date Jun. 10, 1993The gene coding for a fungal endopolygalacturonase inhibitor (PGIP) is cloned and sequenced from both Phaseolus vulgaris genomic and cDNA libraries. The PGIP amino acid sequence, vectors comprising the PGIP gene or parts thereof, and cells transformed by said vecors are also disclosed. This isolated sequences are useful to transform plants, which are sensitive to fungi or microorganism pathogen activities, into plants producing the PGIP protein.
