Isolation and Characterisation of Thionin Genes in Rice (Oryza Sativa)

Thionins are cysteine rich, basic and toxic proteins that are assumed to be involved in the defense against pathogens. Two partial cDNA clones encoding for putative thionin in rice were isolated from endosperm (Rth-l) and shoots (Rth-2). The nucleotide sequences encoding for thionin precursor wer...
