      abstract = {With the erratic changes in climate, crop plants are  facing many forms of biotic stresses. When plants are under  stress, among several gene families, regulatory genes play  a vital role in signal transduction in modulating the  expression of genes underpinning several defense pathways  and targeting regulatory proteins (viz, transcription  factors (TFs)) can be the alternative. Transcription  factors directly regulate the downstream R genes and are  excellent candidates for disease resistance breeding. Till  date, numerous transcription factors have been identified  and characterized structurally and functionally. Of them,  TF families such as WRKY, NAC, Whirly, Apetala2 (AP2),  ethylene responsive elements (ERF) etc. are found to be  associated with transcriptional reprogramming of plant  defense response. These TFs are responsive to the pathogens  PAMPs/DAMPs - hosts PRR protein interactions and  specifically binds to the cis-elements of defense genes and  regulate their expression. With this background, realizing  the importance of TFs in resistance breeding, this book  discusses the recent research and developments in this  field for various crops.},
