ERF1 — Medicago truncatula

Summary

MTR_7G081805, designated ERF1, encodes an AP2/ERF domain-containing protein that localises to the nucleus and binds sequence-specific DNA and cis-regulatory regions. In barrel medic, this gene is associated with ethylene-mediated signalling, defence responses, nodulation, fruit ripening, lipogenesis, salinity response, and signal transduction. It has also been connected to root weight. Studies of related genes in other species link the family to root length and salt tolerance (SALTTL).
