Expression -- Description ? help Back to Top
Source	Description
Uniprot	DEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expressed in sepals at stages 11, 12 and 13 of flower development. Highly expressed in petals at stages 9-10, decreases at stage 11 and disappears after flower stage 12. In anthers, expressed at stage 11 in the tapetum, disappears early in stage 12 when the tapetum degrades and reappears throughout the anther late in stage 12 to persist at least until stage 13. In stamen filaments, expressed at stages 12 to 13, especially near the apical end of the filament. Expressed throughout the gynoecium at early stages up to stage 12, especially strongly in ovules. Expression in gynoecium decreases late in stage 12, but persists through stage 13, especially near the apical end including the style. Expressed in the mesocarp of the fruit and the carpel septum during fruit growth. {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:16107481, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:16829592}.
Uniprot	TISSUE SPECIFICITY: Expressed in the whole plant. {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:10476078}.

Functional Description ? help Back to Top
Source	Description
TAIR	Encodes a member of the auxin response factor family. Mediates auxin response via expression of auxin regulated genes. Acts redundantly with ARF6 to control stamen elongation and flower maturation. Expression of ARF8 is controlled by miR167.
UniProt	Auxin response factors (ARFs) are transcriptional factors that bind specifically to the DNA sequence 5'-TGTCTC-3' found in the auxin-responsive promoter elements (AuxREs). Seems to act as transcriptional activator. Formation of heterodimers with Aux/IAA proteins may alter their ability to modulate early auxin response genes expression. Regulates both stamen and gynoecium maturation. Promotes jasmonic acid production. Partially redundant with ARF6. Involved in fruit initiation. Acts as an inhibitor to stop further carpel development in the absence of fertilization and the generation of signals required to initiate fruit and seed development. {ECO:0000269\|PubMed:12036261, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:16107481, ECO:0000269\|PubMed:16829592}.

We characterized the function of auxin response factor 8 in Arabidopsis by investigating a T-DNA insertion line (arf8-1) and overexpression lines (ARF8 OX) of ARF8. [PMID: 15469491] Auxin response factors ARF6 and ARF8 promote jasmonic acid production, while their gene dosage affects the timing of flower maturation. [PMID: 16107481] Enhance expression of microRNA, miR167, which has a complementary sequence to a portion of the AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR 8 (ARF8), can cause plant fertility defect. [PMID: 16699541] ARF8 restricts signal transduction processes in ovules and growth in pistils until the fruit initiation cue. [PMID: 16829592] Data show that Arabidopsis microRNA167 controls patterns of ARF6 and ARF8 expression, and regulates both female and male reproduction. [PMID: 17021043] The results of this study suggest that similar mechanisms involving auxin signaling exist to inhibit parthenocarpic fruit set in tomato and Arabidopsis. [PMID: 17766399] Phenotypic plasticity of adventitious rooting is controlled by complex regulation of AUXIN RESPONSE FACTOR transcripts and microRNA abundance. ARF6 and ARF8, targets of miR167, are positive regulators. [PMID: 19820192] We concluded that ARF6 and ARF8, in parallel with AS1 and AS2, repress the class 1 KNOX genes in developing floral organs to allow progression of the development of these organs. [PMID: 20007966] ARF8 influences cell expansion and proliferation during petal growth. [PMID: 21421811] Analyses pinpointed misregulation of ARF8 as a major cause for the developmental aberrations exhibited by VSR transgenic plants, but also for the phenotypes induced during normal viral infection caused by the HcPro-encoding Turnip mosaic virus. [PMID: 21589905] these data argue against the previously reported role of increased ARF8 expression in developmental defects caused by P1/HC-Pro. [PMID: 27688620] Ectopic expression of UGT84A2 delayed flowering by indole-3-butyric acid-mediated transcriptional repression of ARF6 and ARF8 genes in Arabidopsis [PMID: 29027578]
