Abstract
The ethylene-responsive element-binding factor(ERF) gene family is one of the largest transcription factor gene families in plants.In this study,a novel ERF gene named GhERF8(GenBank: JN656957) was isolated from our laboratory's leaf cDNA library for Gossypium hirsutum L.The gene encodes a putative of 265 amino-acid protein with a conserved AP2 domain.To understand the function of GhERF8,real-time quantitative PCR(RT-PCR) was used to evaluate the relative expression of GhERF8 at different developmental stages of leaves and tissues.The results showed that GhERF8 could express in all tissues,but expression levels differed.The expression of GhERF8 was the highest in the later stage of leaf maturation.During leaf senescence,GhERF8 expression and chlorophyll content were inversely correlated,indicating that GhERF8 could be related to leaf senescence.Under ethephon and jasmonic acid(JA) treatment,the expression of GhERF8 was up-regulated in leaves,but there was no significant change in expression of GhERF8 under abscisic acid(ABA) treatment.These results indicated that GhERF8 could participate in the signal transduction of ethylene and JA,but not in the ABA-dependent pathway.
