Interpretive Summary: Insect-induced defenses occur in nearly all plants and are regulated by conserved signaling pathways. In plant families, peptides with analogous activity have remained elusive. Peps are conserved signals across diverse plant families regulating antiherbivore defenses and are likely to be the missing functional homologs of system in outside of the Solanaceae. In addition to Peps mediating innate immunity against pathogens. These cDNA and genomic DNA sequences from Gold Queen leaf were submitted to the NCBI database and the assigned accession numbers were KR606062, KR149244, KR606063, KR606060, KR606061, KR606064, KR606066 and KR606065 for GQPep1, GQPep2, GQPep3, GQPep4 and GQPep5 respectively.
