Dna fragment encoding a protein extracted from plants of the genus lupinus or produced in recombinant form and use of the protein in preparing plant growth and anti fungal compositions

摘要

DNA sequence, and variants thereof, encoding a polypeptide from Lupinus that exhibits anti-fungal, anti-oomycete and insecticidal activity. The polypeptide also has plant growth promoter activity, acts as a fertilizer, and has human and animal nutritional properties. Also provided is a process for producing the polypeptide, a vector, a transformed microorganism, and transgenic plants.
