Usage

General Description

Homopterocarpin is a phytoalexin, or plant antibiotic, found in legumes such as soybeans and peanuts. It belongs to the group of phytoalexins called pterocarpans, which are known for their antimicrobial and anti-fungal properties. Homopterocarpin is produced by the plant in response to pathogen attack or stress, and it acts as a natural defense mechanism against the invading pathogens. Studies have suggested that homopterocarpin may also have antioxidant and anti-inflammatory properties, making it a potentially valuable compound for pharmaceutical and agricultural applications. Additionally, it has been investigated for its potential role in plant resistance to disease and stress.
