US 2025/0051266 A1 · Novel GLV-Phenolamide: Biosynthesis and Function in Protecting Plants from Herbivore Attack

Abstract

The present invention relates to a compound of general formula (I) or an enantiomer, diastereomer, stereoisomer, which mediates resistance against leaf- and planthopper pests. The present invention further relates to a method of producing the compound, an enzymatic production method the compound using at least a BBL2 polypeptide, as well as a PPO, AT1, ODC, HPL, PAL, C4H, 4CL, HCT and/or C3H activity. Further envisaged are genetically modified organisms producing the compound, expression cassettes for heterologous expression of the activities, the use of corresponding polypeptides and polynucleotides for the production of the compound, a composition including the compound, as well as uses of the compound for plant protection.
