Pathogen attack leads to transcriptional changes and metabolic modifications allowing the
establishment of appropriate plant defences. Transcription factors (TFs) are key players in …

A new member of the AP2/ERF transcription factor family, GmERF3, was isolated from
soybean. Sequence analysis showed that GmERF3 contained an AP2/ERF domain of 58 …

Cotton, a natural fiber producing crop of huge importance for textile industry, has been

It is now more than a decade since the first commercially successful genetically engineered
agricultural crops were launched (Castle et al., 2006). These first products were based in …

Ethylene responsive transcription factors have been shown to be intimately connected to
plant development, defense responses and stress signaling pathways and in order to use …

Ethylene (ET) is a gaseous plant hormone that plays essential roles in biotic and abiotic
stress responses in plants. However, the role of ET in cold tolerance varies in different …

Cold stress is a major limiting factor in grape (Vitis) productivity. In this study, we
characterized a cold‐responsive ethylene response factor (ERF) transcription factor, Va ERF …

Phytophthora root and stem rot of soybean [Glycine max (L.) Merr.], caused by Phytophthora
sojae Kaufmann and Gerdemann, is a destructive disease throughout the soybean planting …

Ethylene response factor (ERF) proteins regulate a variety of stress responses in plant.
JERF1, a tomato ERF protein, can be induced by abscisic acid (ABA). Overexpression of …
