Challenges of using protein antibiotics for pathogen control
Pest Management Science, Volume 77, Issue 9, Page 3836-3840, September 2021., 2021 Narrow‐spectrum antimicrobials like bacteriocins are a promising and sustainable alternative for controlling bacterial crop diseases. Here, we highlight the challenges that must be addressed to enable such protein antibiotics exploitation. Abstract Bacterial phytopathogens represent a significant threat to many economically important crops.
