Ethylene perception and signal transduction elements are conserved among various plants species where they have been examined, suggesting their importance in plant development and survival. The ethylene receptor multigene family can be divided into subfamily 1 and 2. Previous studies in our laboratory have isolated and characterized Cm-ERS1 and Cm-ETR1 (Sato-Nara et al., 1999; Takahashi et al., 2002; Ma et al., 2006).
