Abstract
AtSAGT1 encodes a salicylic acid (SA) glucosyltransferase enzyme that catalyzes the formation of SA glucoside and SA glucose ester. Here, the AtSAGT1 gene expression patterns were determined in AtSAGT1 promoter::GUS transgenic Arabidopsis plants. As a result, the factors regulating the induction of AtSAGT1 were identified as pathogen defense response, wound response, exogenous application of SA, and jasmonic acid treatment.
