WRKY6

Symbol: WRKY6
Name: WRKY transcription factor 6
Entrez gene ID: 842527
Ensembl gene ID: AT1G62300
Species: (Taxid: 3702)

Functional description:
Encodes a transcription factor WRKY6. Regulates Phosphate1 (Pho1) expression in response to low phosphate (Pi) stress.

Observation:

Deletion of the WRKY6 promoter results in defects in root and leaf cell senescence [11722756].

WRKY6 is a transcription factor involved in controlling processes related to senescence and pathogen defence [11722756] and is a positive regulator of PR1 expression [12000796]. WRKY6 is strongly expressed during senescence [11722756].
