Members of EREBP subfamily are known to function inresponding to biotic and abiotic stresses, such as ethylene, salt, low-temperature anddrought, thus conferring resistance of plants against adverse environment.

• EREBP亚类基因成员参与调节植物对生物和非生物因素的胁迫应答过程。 许多外界条件,如乙烯、盐、伤害、低温、干旱等条件能诱导EREBP亚类家族基因的产生,使植物抗性,耐性提高。
