Plant diseases critically affect the growth and productivity with an eventual impact on global economy, food safety, security. The regulation of gene expression is a decisive factor that orchestrates plant defence responses. Indeed, intricate network key imparts adaptive plasticity plants in altered environ against different pathogens; however, it mainly achieved by enforcement various transcription factors. Several genetic studies documented role factors as positive negative regulators diverse biological functions including biotic stress They play detrimental function regulating critical processes such innate and/or basal immune systems plants, well defensive mechanisms pathogens. This book chapter focuses several TF families have been chosen for their diversity, significance, availability members functionally imperative response to pathogen attack. provides systematic evaluation these defined TFs. Furthermore, discusses coordinated interactions between TFs phytohormones involved modulating aspects defense Understanding regulatory networks associated infection crucial gaining new insights identifying future research directions. Moreover, targeting themselves holds promise disease control strategies. Overall, this aims provide comprehensive into governing defense, specific focus By unravelling TFs, opens avenues developing novel approaches combat diseases.
