BTO:0001202 ·resolve ·HOST_ASSOCIATED ·EXACT SEEDED

A slightly alkaline secretion of water, mucin, protein, salts, and often a starch-splitting enzyme, as ptyalin, that is secreted into the mouth by salivary glands, lubricates ingested food, and often begins the breakdown of starches. — BTO

Machine-generated and unreviewed. Its grounding comes from the seeder's rules, not from a curator.
