Characterization of Plant Defensin (<i>PDF</i>) Genes in Banana (<i>Musa acuminata</i>) Reveals the Antifungal Ability of MaPDF2.2 to Fusarium Wilt Pathogens

Plant defensin (PDF/DEF), an important pathogenesis-related protein which widely exists in plants, displays broad-spectrum antifungal activities. To date, however, reports on the banana PDFs are very limited. In this study, we identified, cloned, and characterized the five Class I <i>PDFs</...
