Kingdom Plantae is a monophyletic group composed of eukaryotic and photosynthetic organisms. Green algae are considered ancestors of terrestrial plants, as these groups share important characteristics, such as the ability to perform photosynthesis and the same chlorophylls types. Throughout evolution, when adapting to the terrestrial environment, plants have also developed important physiological mechanisms to defend against predators. In this sense, plant chitinases are important proteins that produce a defense response against pathogens and arthropods that contain chitin, also acting on plant development. Chitinases belong to the GH18 and GH19 family of glycosyl hydrolases and have so far been widely described in gymnosperms and angiosper...
