BACKGROUND Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are small proteins with potent antibacterial,
antiviral, and antifungal activity. AMPs are ubiquitous among multicellular eukaryotes, with …

Antimicrobial peptides (AMPs) are a class of short, usually positively charged polypeptides
that exist in humans, animals, and plants. Considering the increasing number of drug …

Plant–pathogen interactions induce a signal transmission series that stimulates the plant's
host defense system against pathogens and this, in turn, leads to disease resistance …
