In the present study, we isolated and characterized four novel papaya ERF transcription factor cDNAs (CpERF5 CpERF8) with homology to ERF genes involved in disease resistance, and analyzed their expression in different tissues and in response to the plant defense inducer benzothiadiazole (BTH).
ERF stands for "Emergency Reaction Force," which the Guantánamo detainees themselves morphed into the verb "to ERF".
Roman numerals refer to ERF subfamilies.
