“…Examples of plant RIPs are ricin from castor bean ( Ricinus communis ) (Endo et al ., 1987), ME1+2 from Mirabilis expansa (Vivanco et al ., 1999), RIP1 from maize (Nielsen et al ., 2001), PAP‐H from pokeweed ( Phytolacca americana ) (Park et al ., 2002a), α‐ and β‐pisavins from pea ( Pisum sativum ) seeds (Lam et al ., 1998) and ebulin1, a type II RIP from Sambucus ebulus (Girbes et al ., 1993). Hispin is a 21‐kDa RIP from hairy melon seeds (Ng and Parkash, 2002), whereas luffacylin is an arginine‐ and glutamate‐rich RIP from loofah ( Luffa cylindrical ) (Parkash et al ., 2002). A 30‐kDa RIP was isolated from dehursked barley grains (Roberts and Selitrennikoff, 1986).…”

“…The final purification step was C 18 reverse‐phase HPLC. We found that the optimized purification procedure in this paper could more efficiently gain the antifungal peptide of the foxtail millet seeds, but it was a little different from the purification procedure proven useful for the purification of other antifungal proteins and peptides 20–35, 44…”

“…However, the productivity of foxtail millet is limited for various reasons, one of which is its susceptibility to fungal diseases such as downy mildew and ergot, resulting in heavy losses of yield and quality. To date, several proteins with antibacterial and/or antifungal properties have been isolated and characterized from different plant species and tissues;14–40 however, there are no reports about the antifungal peptide from foxtail millet seeds. A detailed analysis of antifungal peptide that could be effective against these diseases will therefore be used as an important step towards the final objective of enhancing the defense mechanism of foxtail millet.…”

“…It inhibited growth in the fungi Alternaria brassicae, Cercospora personata, F. oxysporum, Mucor sp., and R. solani with the IC50 values of 33, 42, 37, 40, and 48 μM, respectively, and spore germination in A. brassis with IC50 of 12.5 μM (Zhang et al 2015). The small RIP luffacylin from L. cylindrica seeds possesses antifngal activity (Parkash et al 2002).…”

“…The 21-kDa hairy melon RIP and the arginine-and glutamate-rich small RIP luffacylin from Luffa cylindrica seeds (Parkash et al 2002) manifested antifungal activity. A type 1 RIP, designated as Jc-SCRIP, was isolated from Jatropha curcas seed coats.…”
