ERF5 — Camelina sativa
Summary
CSA18G034930 (ERF5, also known as CsDEWAX or CsERF107) on Camelina sativa chromosome 18 encodes a transcription factor with an AP2/ERF domain that localises to the nucleus and binds sequence-specific DNA. This gene is associated with the downregulation of wax anabolism and with wax anabolism itself, as well as with cuticle formation, cuticular wax biosynthesis, and wax synthesis. It is linked to ethylene-mediated signalling, glucosinolate metabolism, defence responses including resistance to Botrytis cinerea, stress responses such as UV-B stress tolerance, fruit ripening, and somatic embryogenesis. Studies of related genes in other species link the ERF5/DEWAX family to drought tolerance, freezing tolerance, cold tolerance, dehydration resistance, UV-B tolerance, anthocyanin content, seed growth and development, and resistance to Pseudomonas syringae and Verticillium.
