Source Description
UniprotDEVELOPMENTAL STAGE: Expression increases at the orange (Or) and red (R) fruit stages. Expression is increased with ethylene at mature green (MG) stage, but only after six days post-treatment. Expression is increased three days post-treatment with plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) at the Or stage, but not at the MG or breaker (Br) stages. No change in expression level up to six days post-treatment with ABA at the MG fruit stage (PubMed:26959229). Expressed during floral development (PubMed:21735233, PubMed:28167023, PubMed:27645097). During bud-anthesis stages flowers exhibit dynamic expression pattern in sepal, stamen, ovary and petal (PubMed:28167023). Expressed during ovary development with the highest expression on the third day after the flower fully opened (PubMed:21735233). During seed germination, expressed in the cotyledon. Expressed strongly in the pollen grain. Expressed in the developing fruits, in which mainly expressed in the vascular tissues and seeds. During growth, strongly expressed in leaf, where mainly expressed in the trichome and in the root tip and lateral root formation sites. Expressed in the vascular tissue and the epicycle of the root. Also expressed in branch (PubMed:27645097). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:21735233, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26959229, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27645097, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28167023}.

Source Description
UniProtAuxin response factors (ARFs) are transcriptional factors that bind specifically to the DNA sequence 5'-TGTCTC-3' found in the auxin-responsive promoter elements (AuxREs) (By similarity). Could act as transcriptional activator or repressor (PubMed:26959229, PubMed:26716451, PubMed:27645097, PubMed:28167023). Involved in the control of fruit ripening process (PubMed:26959229, PubMed:26716451, PubMed:28167023). Regulates expression of a number of ripening regulators, transcription factors, and ethylene biosynthesis and signaling components (PubMed:26959229, PubMed:26716451). May act as a transcriptional repressor of auxin-responsive genes (PubMed:26716451). Regulates vegetative growth, lateral root formation and flower organ senescence, possibly partially by regulating gene expression of auxin and ethylene response factor (ERF) genes (PubMed:28167023). Plays a negative role in axillary shoot meristem formation (PubMed:27645097). {ECO:0000255|RuleBase:RU004561, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26716451, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26959229, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27645097, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28167023}.

  1. SlARF2 is a new component of the regulatory network controlling the ripening process in tomato. Two paralogs, SlARF2A and SlARF2B, are found in the tomato genome, both displaying a marked ripening-associated expression but distinct responsiveness to ethylene and auxin. [SlARF2A]
    [PMID: 26716451]
  2. These results revealed that ARF2A interconnects signals of ethylene and additional hormones to co-ordinate the capacity of fruit tissue to initiate the complex ripening process
    [PMID: 26959229]
  3. Stem anatomy studies have revealed significantly altered cambia and phloem in tomato plants expressing down-regulated levels of ARF2a, which is associated with obvious alterations in auxin distribution.
    [PMID: 27645097]
  4. Study shows that normal ARF2a expression is essential for axillary shoot and vascular development in tomato and thereby describes new roles for ARFs in tomato development.
    [PMID: 27645097]
  5. The Solanum lycopersicum auxin response factor SlARF2 participates in regulating lateral root formation and flower organ senescence.

Source Description
UniProtINDUCTION: By tomato fruit ripening. Expression in tomato fruits is up-regulated by exogenous application of ethylene and down-regulated by inhibition of ethylene receptors with 1-methylcyclopropene (1-MCP) (PubMed:26959229, PubMed:26716451). Up-regulated by plant hormone abscisic acid (ABA) in tomato fruits (PubMed:26959229). Expression is not up-regulated by plant hormone auxin in tomato fruits (PubMed:26716451). Up-regulated by auxin and gibberellic acid (GA), and down-regulated by ethylene in seedlings (PubMed:28167023). Down-regulated during decapitation-induced axillary shoot development and by excision of immature leaves. Down-regulation is inhibited by the application of auxin on the cut surface (PubMed:27645097). {ECO:0000269|PubMed:26716451, ECO:0000269|PubMed:26959229, ECO:0000269|PubMed:27645097, ECO:0000269|PubMed:28167023}.
