Gene Details:

Functional Descriptions:

  • ERF4 affects fruit firmness through TPL4 by reducing ethylene production.
  • Identified a mutation (C-G) in the ethylene response factor-associated amphiphilic repression (EAR) motif in the coding region of the apple ETHYLENE RESPONSE FACTOR4 (ERF4) gene.
  • Suppression of ERF4 or TPL4 promoted fruit ripening and ethylene production.
