Abstract: The present invention relates to a chimeric nucleotide sequence encoding peptides with antimicrobial activity, to be expressed on plants as bioreactors, plant cell or transformed plant material and E. coli, where plants and bacteria were used for scale-up production of antimicrobial peptide and that produces the peptide sequence derived from nucleotide sequence SEQ ID No. 1, SEQ ID No. 6 and SEQ ID No. 12. It includes a method for obtaining the amino acids sequence SEQ ID No. 9 derived from a chimeric nucleotide sequence which encodes to antimicrobial peptides, wherein said amino acids sequence is derived from the synthetic DNA sequence SEQ ID No. 1, obtained from a back-translation of the amino acid sequence of the peptide Ap-S of Argopecten purpuratus scallop.

Abstract: The invention relates to a thermo-photo-bioreactor and to a method for the culture and mass micropropagation of Deschampsia antarctica in vitro. The invention comprises a discontinuous immersion reactor for biomass micropropagation, including means for incorporating chemical inducing agents (salt, metals, organic compounds, etc.) and internal luminescence or illumination means (UV radiation and temperature) for supplying said chemical inducers and/or illumination during any growth phase of the vegetable or plant material (multiplication or propagation and/or maintenance). The invention is advantageous in that it can be used to produce large quantities of biomass of the aforementioned Antarctic species, while providing conditions suitable for said plant to produce metabolites that can be used for human health and personal care.

Abstract: A chimeric nucleotide sequence is provided encoding peptides with antimicrobial activity to be expressed in plants, plant cells or transformed plant material that will produce the peptide sequences derived from SEQ ID No. 1 and SEQ ID No. 6. A method is also provided for conferring resistance or tolerance to plant pathogenic fungi or bacteria on a plant using suitable transfer vectors, which contain the coding sequence for the peptides with antimicrobial activity.
