Abstract
Transgenic plants that express antimicrobial CEMA and/or CEMA-related peptides are disclosed. In certain embodiments, these plants have enhanced, broad-spectrum pathogen resistance and are useful as agricultural or horticultural crops. In other embodiments, the plants are used to produce large quantities of the CEMA and/or CEMA-related peptides.
