First Report of Antifungal Activity Conferred by Non-Conventional Peptides

Peptides are generally composed of 2-100 amino acid residues and well known as key regulators of many physiological processes (Tavormina et al., 2015; Wang et al., 2020a). Conventional peptides have been found to exhibit pronounced antifungal activities and relatively safe for the environment and human health (Marcos et al., 2008; Ribeiro et al., 2013).
