Gene Details:

• Gene ID: TraesCS1A02G328800
• Gene Symbol: TaERF
• Gene Name: ethylene-responsive transcription factor
• Genome: Chinese_Spring1.0
• Species: Triticum aestivum

Functional Descriptions:

• A set of 135 candidate genes near the 49 QTL included TaBOX (F-box family protein) and TaERF (ethylene-responsive transcription factor).
• TaERF functions in crosstalk between N and ethylene in wheat.
• TraesCS1A02G328800 (TaERF) was annotated as an ethylene-responsive TF, while its homolog AT3G23240 is reportedly involved in the ERFs-NRT1.8 signaling module, which promotes NRT1.8-mediated nitrate unloading from the hypocotyl to roots and leaves.
• Speculating that TaERF functions in N assimilation and remobilization in wheat, we assigned TaERF as the most promising candidate gene.
