Abstract: This disclosure relates to a transgenic plant or plant tissue. In particular, this disclosure relates to a transgenic plant or plant tissue or plant cell comprising at least one polynucleotide comprising at least one sequence encoding a variable domain of a heavy-chain antibody (VHH) specifically binding to a sphingolipid of a fungus. Advantageously, the expression of the polynucleotide in at least part of the transgenic plant or plant tissue or plant cell (i) protects at least part of the transgenic plant or plant tissue or plant cell from an infection with a plant pathogenic fungus, (ii) inhibits the growth of a plant pathogenic fungus on at least part of the transgenic plant or plant tissue or plant cell, or (iii) increases the resistance of at least part of the transgenic plant or plant tissue or plant cell against a plant pathogenic fungus.

Abstract: This disclosure relates to agrochemical and biological control compositions for combating pests, more specifically plant pests, comprising at least one polypeptide, which specifically binds to a pest. The disclosure further provides methods for protecting or treating a plant or a part of a plant from an infection or other biological interaction with a plant pathogen, at least comprising the step of applying directly or indirectly to a plant or to a part of a plant, an agrochemical composition, under conditions effective to protect or treat a plant or a part of a plant against a infection or biological interaction with a plant pathogen. Further provided are methods for producing such agrochemical compositions and formulations, to polypeptides with a specific pesticidal activity comprised within an agrochemical formulation, to nucleic acids encoding such polypeptide and to plants comprising chimeric genes comprising such nucleic acids.
