Abstract: A polypeptide with the sequence: Ala-Thr-Tyr-Asn-Gly-Lys-Cys-Tyr-Lys-Lys-Asp-Asn-Ile-Cys-Lys-Tyr-Lys-Ala-Gln-Ser-Gly-Lys-Thr-Ala-Ile-Cys-Lys-Cys-Tyr-Val-Lys-Lys-Cys-Pro-Arg-Asp-Gly-Ala-Lys-Cys-Glu-Phe-Asp-Ser-Tyr-Lys-Gly-Lys-Cys-Tyr-Cys can be produced by fermentation of Aspergillus giganteus and used as an antifungal agent. Expression of this polypeptide gene in plants strongly inhibits the growth of phytopathological fungi on the plants.

Method for introduction of disease and pest resistance into plants and novel genes incorporated into plants which code therefor
TL;DR: In this paper, a method of inhibiting pathogenic conditions of plants including viral, bacterial, and fungal infections and insect infestations by expressing into the plant genome genes encoding for a polypeptide inhibitor or inhibitor precursor of the pathogenic condition which inhibitor or precursor is selected from complementary oligonucleotides for blocking viral transcription or translation produced in vivo.
