The intrinsic defense mechanisms of plants toward pathogenic bacteria have been widely investigated for years and are still at the center of interest in plant biosciences research. This study investigated the role of the <i>AtbZIP62</i> gene encoding a transcription factor (TF) in the basal defense and systemic acquired resistance in Arabidopsis using the reverse genetics approach. To achieve that, the <i>atbzip62</i> mutant line (lacking the <i>AtbZIP62</i> gene) was challenged with <i>Pseudomonas syringae</i> pv. <i>tomato</i> (<i>Pst DC3000</i>) inoculated by infiltration into Arabidopsis leaves at the rosette stage. The results indicated that <i>atbzip62</i> plants showed an enhanced resistance phenotype toward <i>Pst DC3000 vir</i> over time compared to Col-0 and the susceptible disease controls, <i>atgsnor1-3</i> and <i>atsid2.</i> In addition, the transcript accumulation of pathogenesis-related genes, <i>AtPR1</i> and <i>AtPR2</i>, increased significantly in <i>atbzip62</i> over time (0–72 h post-inoculation, hpi) compared to that of <i>atgsnor1-3</i> and <i>atsid2</i> (susceptible lines), with <i>AtPR1</i> prevailing over <i>AtPR2</i>. When coupled with the recorded pathogen growth (expressed as a colony-forming unit, CFU mL<sup>−1</sup>), the induction of <i>PR</i> genes, associated with the salicylic acid (SA) defense signaling, in part explained the observed enhanced resistance of <i>atbzip62</i> mutant plants in response to <i>Pst DC3000 vir</i>.

Moreover, the expression of <i>AtAZI</i> (a systemic acquired resistance -related) gene was significantly upregulated at all time points (0–24 h post-inoculation, hpi) in <i>atbzip62</i> compared to Col-0 and <i>atgsnor1-3</i> and <i>atsid2</i>.
