Rashotte and Goertzen BMC Plant Biology 2010, 10:74 /1471-2229/10/74 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The CRF domain defines Cytokinin Response Factor Research article proteins in plants Aaron M Rashotte* and Leslie R Goertzen Abstract Background: Cytokinin Response Factors (CRFs) are a small subset of AP2/ERF transcription factor genes shown in Arabidopsis to regulate leaf development as part of the cytokinin signal transduction pathway. This study examines the phylogenetic distribution of CRF genes in other plant species, and attempts to identify the extent of sequence conservation and
