Aliphatic glucosinolates are a large group of plant secondary metabolites characteristic of Brassicaceae, including the model plant Arabidopsis. The diverse and complex degradation products of aliphatic glucosinolates contribute to plant responses to herbivory, pathogen attack, and environmental stresses. Most of the biosynthesis genes in the aliphatic glucosinolate pathway have been cloned in Arabidopsis, and the research focus has recently shifted to the regulatory mechanisms controlling aliphatic glucosinolate accumulation. Up till now, more than 40 transcriptional regulators have been identified as regulating the aliphatic glucosinolate pathway, but many more novel regulators likely remain to be discovered based on research evidence over the past decade. In the current study, we took a systemic approach to functionally test 155 candidate transcription factors in Arabidopsis identified by yeast one-hybrid assay, and successfully validated at least 30 novel regulators that could significantly influence the accumulation of aliphatic glucosinolates in our experimental set-up. We also showed that the regulators of the aliphatic glucosinolate pathway have balanced positive and negative effects, and glucosinolate metabolism and plant development can be coordinated. Our work is the largest scale effort so far to validate transcriptional regulators of a plant secondary metabolism pathway, and provides new insights into how the highly diverse plant secondary metabolism is regulated at the transcriptional level
