Abstract: At present, Polygalacturonase-inhibiting protein (PGIP) gene has become one of the hottest research spots of plant anti-fungal genetic engineering. To March 1, 2008, 239 nucleotide sequences marked with ‘pgip’ were registered in GenBank of NCBI. We review the properties, molecular aspects of their expression and regulation and their possible application to the development of disease-resistant breeding.
