Abstract
En 中文
• Machine learning (ML) accelerates antifungal peptide discovery workflows. • QSAR models enable rational design of crop-protective peptides. • Most antifungal peptides (AFPs) predictive models focus on human rather than plant pathogens. • Generative AI expands peptide chemical space beyond natural sequences. • Plant-specific QSAR-ML datasets are needed for agricultural applications. • AFPs offer sustainable alternatives to conventional fungicides. • Multi-objective ML design may improve peptide stability and delivery. • AI-guided AFPs discovery could support next-generation biofungicides.
