Transcript levels of selected biotic and abiotic stress-related genes in leaves of WT and SlbZIP1-RNAi plants under salt stress conditions. 8-week-old plants were irrigated with water containing 400 mM NaCl from the bottoms of the pots, then leaf samples were collected after 24 h. The relative expression levels were normalized to 1 in WT plants. Bars represent the mean of three biological replicates ± SE. Asterisks indicate statistical significance (*0.01 < P < 0.05, **P < 0.01) between WT and transgenic plants, respectively
