Legumes Protease Inhibitors as Biopesticides and Their Defense Mechanisms against Biotic Factors
Legumes are affected by biotic factors such as insects, molds, bacteria, and viruses. These plants can produce many different molecules in response to the attack of phytopathogens. Protease inhibitors (PIs) are proteins produced by legumes that inhibit the protease activity of phytopathogens. PIs ar...
