Any process that activates or increases the frequency, rate, or extent of antifungal peptide biosynthesis. The synthesis or release of an antifungal peptide during an immune response, resulting in an increase in intracellular or extracellular levels. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of peptides, compounds of 2 or more (but usually less than 100) amino acids where the alpha carboxyl group of one is bound to the alpha amino group of another. This may include the translation of a precursor protein and its subsequent processing into a functional peptide. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of an antifungal peptide. Any process that stops, prevents, or reduces the frequency, rate, or extent of antifungal peptide biosynthesis. The synthesis or release of an antimicrobial peptide during an immune response, resulting in an increase in intracellular or extracellular levels. Such peptides may have protective properties against bacteria, fungi, viruses, or protozoa. The chemical reactions and pathways resulting in the formation of an antimicrobial peptide. Such peptides may have protective properties against bacteria, fungi, viruses, or protozoa. Any process that modulates the frequency, rate, or extent of antifungal peptide biosynthesis. An immune response against a fungus mediated through a body fluid. An example of this process is the antifungal humoral response in Drosophila melanogaster.
