A proposed working model for BcWRKY33A-mediated root development in Bok choy. The transcription levels of BcWRKY25 and BcWRKY33A increased when exposed to NaCl stress. BcWRKY25 binds to the promoter of BcWRKY33A, enhancing its expression. As a result, the elevated BcWRKY33A directly activates the expression of BcLRP1 and BcCOW1, leading to the promotion of primary root elongation and root hair development.
