We found out the SlWRKY28 induced regulation of the enzyme gene in the reactive oxygen species (ROS) scavenging pathway is a potential mechanism for transgenic lines to improve their resistance to alkaline salt. This study shows theoretical and practical significance in determining SlWRKY28 transcription factors involved in the regulation of alkaline salt tolerance.
