A proposed model for the role of PhWRKY30 in antiviral defense response. The infection with TRV or TMV induces the transcription of PhWRKY30. PhWRKY30 specifically regulates the downstream gene PhPAL2b by binding to its promoter, resulting in promoted SA biosynthesis. SA contributes to virus resistance by modulating ROS production and RNA silencing pathways. Solid line ending with an arrow or a short perpendicular line indicates a positive or a negative regulation, respectively.
