Pterostilbene is a phytoalexin that contributes to defence responses in sorghum, but the transcriptional regulation of its biosynthesis remained poorly understood. Here, we characterised two transcription factors, SbERF096 and SbWRKY62, that are induced upon\n                    <jats:italic>C. sublineola<\/jats:italic>\n                    infection, with significantly higher expression levels in the resistant cultivar SC748\u20105 than the susceptible cultivar BTx623. SbERF096 directly activates\n                    <jats:italic>SbSTS1<\/jats:italic>\n                    , which encodes stilbene synthase, via binding to GCC box, while SbWRKY62 directly activates\n                    <jats:italic>SbSOMT<\/jats:italic>\n                    , which encodes stilbene\n                    <jats:italic>O<\/jats:italic>\n                    \u2010methyltransferase (SOMT), via binding to W\u2010box motifs, marking the first transcription factor known to regulate a SOMT gene. Transient co\u2010expression of SbERF096 and SbWRKY62 promoted\n                    <jats:italic>SbSTS1<\/jats:italic>\n                    and\n                    <jats:italic>SbSOMT<\/jats:italic>\n                    expressions from their native promoters, respectively, resulting in elevated pterostilbene accumulation in\n                    <jats:italic>Nicotiana benthamiana<\/jats:italic>\n                    which does not produce stilbenes inherently. Furthermore, SbWRKY62 directly targets\n                    <jats:italic>SbXIP1<\/jats:italic>\n                    which is predicted to encode a xylanase inhibitor protein, a cell wall defence\u2010related protein that may reinforce physical barriers. These findings suggested that SbWRKY62 could confer anthracnose resistance with dual defence pathways to induce phytoalexin with SbERF096 and activate XIP production.
