Chickpea NCR13 disulfide cross-linking variants exhibit profound differences in antifungal activity and modes of action.

Small cysteine-rich antifungal peptides with multi-site modes of action (MoA) have potential for development as biofungicides. In particular, legumes of the inverted repeat-lacking clade express a large family of nodule-specific cysteine-rich (NCR) peptides that orchestrate differentiation of nitrog...
