Abstract
Extracts from the seeds of 15 species of legume inhibited the infection of plants by viruses. Extracts could be divided into those with marked inhibitory activity reducible on heating and those with less marked inhibitory activity which increased on heating. Evidence is given is given to suggest that seed extracts contain both virus inhibitors and augmenters and that the inhibitors are high molecular weight proteins possibly related to lectins.Entities:
