gene TPS10, identification of the region from -300 to -200 of the maize TPS10 promoter as both necessary and sufficient for its inducibility by herbivory through 5' deletion mapping in Arabidopsis thaliana. Gene EREB58 has a spatiotemporal expression pattern highly similar to that of TPS10 | Zea mays |

Zea mays | jasmonate induction of gene TPS10. The region from -300 to -200 of the maize TPS10 promoter is both necessary and sufficient for its inducibility by herbivory, phylogenetic analysis identifies the herbivore- and jasmonate-responsive AP2/ERF transcription factor EREB58 as a candidate regulator of TPS10 in maize, EREB58 binds directly to the GCC-box within the promoter fragment from -300 to -200 and promotes TPS10 expression | up |

malfunction | transgenic maize plants overexpressing EREB58 show constitutive overaccumulation of TPS10 transcripts and also two major TPS10 products, (E)-beta-farnesene and (E)-alpha-bergamotene. By contrast, the contents of these two sesquiterpenes are reduced in EREB58-RNAi transgenic lines, in which the expression of TPS10 is suppressed | Zea mays |
metabolism | the herbivore-induced sesquiterpenes of maize are mainly produced by two terpene synthases, TPS10 and TPS23, which convert the substrate farnesyl diphosphate (FPP) into various structurally diverse products | Zea mays |
additional information | the region from -300 to -200 of the maize TPS10 promoter is both necessary and sufficient for its inducibility by herbivory, the herbivore- and jasmonate-responsive AP2/ERF transcription factor EREB58 is a positive regulator of TPS10 expression and TPS10 volatile emission in maize, and plays a potential role in indirect defense against herbivores in maize, EREB58 binds directly to the GCC-box within the promoter fragment from -300 to -200 and promotes TPS10 expression, phylogenetic analysis, overview | Zea mays |
