Gene Details:

  • Gene ID:
  • Gene Symbol: RhERF4
  • Gene Name: ethylene response factor 4
  • Genome:
  • Species: Rosa hybridaa

Functional Descriptions:

  • Rosa hybridaaa RhERF1 and RhERF4 mediate ethylene- and auxin-regulated petal abscission by influencing pectin degradation.
  • Reduced expression of RhERF1 or RhERF4 was observed to accelerate petal abscission.
  • RhERF1 and RhERF4 were shown to bind to the promoter of the pectin-metabolizing gene β-GALACTOSIDASE 1 (RhBGLA1), and reduced expression of RhBGLA1 delayed petal abscission.
  • RhERF1 and RhERF4 integrate and coordinate ethylene and auxin signals to modulate pectin metabolism, in part by regulating the expression of RhBGLA1.
  • Reduced expression of RhERF1 and RhERF4 decreases accumulation of pectic galactan in the rose petal AZ.
