The serine protease inhibitors and plant-insect interaction

The serine protease inhibitors and plant-insect interaction

Plants respond to a physical injury or biological attack by producing, among other compounds, an arsenal of defense proteins, secondary metabolites and phytohormones, all necessary for plant survival. Defense proteins include the group of serine protease inhibitors (SPI), proteins that interact with...
