Narrow-leafed lupin (Lupinus angustifolius) β1- and β6-conglutin proteins antifungal activity, protecting plants against necrotrophic pathogen induced damage from Sclerotinia sclerotiorum and Phytophthora nicotianae

Vicilins (7S globulins) are seed storage proteins and constitute the main protein family in legume seeds, particularly in narrow-leafed lupin (Lupinus angustifolius L.; NLL), where seven vicilin genes, called β1- to β7-conglutin have been identified. Vicilins are involved in germination processes su...
