“…Only few sequences were grouped into Groups III, VI, X, II and VI. However, the Group VII represents about 4.1% of the family in Arabidopsis [13] , 2.46% in grape [15] , 9.56% in poplar [38] and 10.34% in rice [13] . This group represents more than 22% of the proteins containing the single AP2 domain, found in the Coffee Genome database.…”

Members of the ERF Family of Transcription Factors play an important role in plant development and gene expression that regulates responses to biotic and abiotic stress. This work identified 36 ERF family genes in Coffea arabica within the AP2/ERF full domain, using the EST-based genomic resource of the Brazilian Coffee Genome Project. The ERF family genes were classified into nine of the ten existing groups through phylogenetic analysis of the deduced amino acid sequences and comparison with the sequences of the ERF family genes in Arabidopsis. In addition to the AP2 domain, other conserved domains were identified, typical of members of each group. The in silico analysis and expression profiling showed high levels of expression for libraries derived from tissues of fruits, leaves and flowers as well as for libraries subjected to water stress. These results suggest the participation of the ERF family genes of C. arabica in distinct biological functions, such as control of development, maturation and responses to water stress. The results of this work imply in the selection of promising genes for further functional characterizations that will provide a better understanding of the complex regulatory networks related to plant development and responses to stress, opening up opportunities for coffee breeding programs.

“…ERF family members contain a conserved AP2 domain and are involved in the regulation of plant growth, development, and response to abiotic stress [ 10 ]. The ERF family is divided into ERF and Dehydration-Responsive Element Binding (DREB) subfamilies according to cis-acting elements associated with ERF binding; ERF subfamily members bind to the ethylene response element GCC-box, while DREB subfamily members bind to the drought and low temperature response element DRE [ 11 ]. The RAV family is characterized by a conserved AP2/ERF domain at the N-terminus and a B3 domain at the C-terminus [ 12 ], while the soloist family contains an AP2/ERF conserved domain, but its gene structure is significantly different from that of other subfamilies [ 13 ].…”

“…The ERF family is the largest family in the AP2/ERF superfamily and has been widely reported in Manihot esculenta Crantz [ 33 ] and Ipomoea batatas (L.) Lam [ 34 ]; for example, 170 ERFs have been identified in P. trichocarpa [ 35 ] and 147 ERFs have been identified in Manihot esculenta [ 36 ]. Although ERF transcription factors in Populus trichocarpa were identified [ 37 ] and shown to respond to abiotic stresses such as salt stress [ 11 ], the molecular mechanism of ERF transcription factors in response to drought stress in poplar remains unknown. Furthermore, the fast-growing and efficient genetic transformation characteristics of P. alba × P. glandulosa make it a model plant for forest research.…”

The Ethylene Responsive Factor (ERF) transcription factor family is important for regulating plant growth and stress responses. Although the expression patterns of ERF family members have been reported in many plant species, their role in Populus alba × Populus glandulosa, an important model plant for forest research, remains unclear. In this study, we identified 209 PagERF transcription factors by analyzing the P. alba × P. glandulosa genome. We analyzed their amino acid sequences, molecular weight, theoretical pI (Isoelectric point), instability index, aliphatic index, grand average of hydropathicity, and subcellular localization. Most PagERFs were predicted to localize in the nucleus, with only a few PagERFs localized in the cytoplasm and nucleus. Phylogenetic analysis divided the PagERF proteins into ten groups, Class I to X, with those belonging to the same group containing similar motifs. Cis-acting elements associated with plant hormones, abiotic stress responses, and MYB binding sites were analyzed in the promoters of PagERF genes. We used transcriptome data to analyze the expression patterns of PagERF genes in different tissues of P. alba × P. glandulosa, including axillary buds, young leaves, functional leaves, cambium, xylem, and roots, and the results indicated that PagERF genes are expressed in all tissues of P. alba × P. glandulosa, especially in roots. Quantitative verification results were consistent with transcriptome data. When P. alba × P. glandulosa seedlings were treated with 6% polyethylene glycol 6000 (PEG6000), the results of RT-qRCR showed that nine PagERF genes responded to drought stress in various tissues. This study provides a new perspective on the roles of PagERF family members in regulating plant growth and development, and responses to stress in P. alba × P. glandulosa. Our study provides a theoretical basis for ERF family research in the future.
