Pest protection conferred by a Beta vulgaris serine proteinase inhibitor gene. [PDF]

PLoS One, 2013
Proteinase inhibitors provide a means of engineering plant resistance to insect pests. A Beta vulgaris serine proteinase inhibitor gene (BvSTI) was fused to the constitutive CaMV35S promoter for over-expression in Nicotiana benthamiana plants to study ...

The role of the proteinase inhibitor ovorubin in apple snail eggs resembles plant embryo defense against predation. [PDF]

PLoS ONE, 2010
BACKGROUND: Fieldwork has thoroughly established that most eggs are intensely predated. Among the few exceptions are the aerial egg clutches from the aquatic snail Pomacea canaliculata which have virtually no predators. Its defenses are advertised by the
