Beschreibung
Zusammenfassung:	The invention relate to a composition of matter comprising either a peptide having the amino acid sequence wherein and Xaa23, may be the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of , 3,4dihydroxyphenylalanine and Val, and wherein Xaa10 is selected from the group consisting of , 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine, and Val, with the proviso that said peptide is not Magainin 1; or a peptide having the amino acid sequence wherein and Xaa23 may be the same or different and are selected from the group consisting of , 3,4dihydroxyphenylalanine and Val, and wherein Xaa10 is selected from the group consisting of , 3,4-dihydroxyphenylalanine and Val with the proviso that said peptide is not Magainin 2, Magainin 2 substituted only at Xaa2l, Magainin 2 substituted only in at least two of Xaa8, Xaa13 and Xaa18 with Ala and with the further proviso that said peptide is not Magainin 2 substituted with only a single Ala, in association with an acceptable carrier. The present invention relates to the field of peptides which are useful for combating plant pathogens, and methods of their use against plant pathogens. The present invention also relates to screening methods useful in conjunction therewith.
