Gene Details:

• Gene ID: Zm00001eb352580
• Gene Symbol: ZmEREB92 ereb92
• Gene Name: AP2-EREBP-transcription factor 92
• Genome: Zm-B73-REFERENCE-NAM-5.0
• Species: Zea mays

Functional Descriptions:

• Mutation of ZmEREB92 and OsERF74 both lead to enhanced germination under cold condition, suggesting their regulation on seed germination might be coupled with temperature sensitivity.
• OsERF74, the rice ortholog of ZmEREB92, shows conserved function in negatively regulating seed germination in rice.
• ZmEREB92 plays a negative role in seed germination by regulating ethylene signaling and starch mobilization in maize.
• ZmEREB92, as a negative regulator of seed germination in maize. Enhanced germination in ereb92 mutants is contributed by elevated ethylene signaling and starch degradation.
• ZmEREB92 negatively regulates seed germination in maize by affecting embryo growth during imbibition.
• ZmEREB92 is a candidate gene that regulates ear height and the ratio of ear to plant height.
• ZmEREB92 interacts with ZmMYC2 to activate maize terpenoid phytoalexin biosynthesis upon Fusarium graminearum infection through jasmonic acid/ethylene signaling.
