Basic leucine zipper (bZIP) proteins play important roles in responding to biotic and abiotic
stresses in plants. However, the molecular mechanisms of plant resistance to pathogens …

… Phenolic acids and flavonoids were quantified at 320 nm, salicylates at 270 nm with the
exception of gentisic acid derivative and (+)-catechin which were quantified at 220 nm. …
