Antifungal Activity of a Protean Extract from Amaranthus hypochondriacus Seeds
Journal of the Mexican Chemical Society, 2020 Abstract. Plants have developed a variety of protection mechanisms which include the synthesis of both, low molecular weight secondary metabolites and macromolecules as proteins and peptides with antimicrobial activity. There are previous reports of antifungal peptides found on the seeds of other Amaranthus species, so it is very probable that these ...
