Molecular characterization of snowdrop lectin (GNA) and its comparison with reported lectin sequences of Amaryllidaceae

Plant lectins have become efficient sources of insect resistance in crops. The present study was conducted to identify, amplify, clone and characterize the plant lectin gene GNA. The lectin, present in Galanthus nivalis (snowdrop), is an agglutinin toxic to hemiptera. The attempt was made to elucida...
