Abstract

The trypsin and chymotrypsin isoinhibitors of 8 annual Cicer spp. including C. arietinum had the same migration rate in gel electrophoresis. They were grouped into 3 classes according to the relative inhibitory activity found in the spp. The value of protease inhibitors in seeds as defence mechanisms against insects were assessed and discussed.
