Intervention effect WRKY4 expression was downregulated in tomato by AR156 induction.
Observation WRKY4 is localized in the nucleus.
Observation WRKY4 exhibits transcriptional regulatory activity.
Observation WRKY4 directly targets the promoter region of the SSL3 (Strictosidine Synthase-Like) gene.
Mechanism WRKY4 negatively regulates SSL3 expression, contributing to AR156-ISR against tomato bacterial wilt.
