Abstract: In the present work,we isolated an ADF gene(actin depolymerizing factor)from petals of roses(Rosa hybrid‘Samantha’)and named it as Rh-ADF1 with accession NO. JN048105 and deposited in GenBank datebase. The cDNA full length of Rh-ADF1 contains an open reading frame with 423 bp in length,encoding a protein of 140 amino acids. Semi-quantitative RT-PCR analysis showed that expression level of Rh-ADF1 was slightly higher in petals than other four floral organs,including sepals,gynoecia,androecia,receptacles. The accumulation of Rh-ADF1 transcripts was strongly increased by ethylene in petals,and was obviously suppressed by 1-MCP,an action inhibitor of ethylene. Transient expression of GFP-Rh-ADF1 fusion gene in onion epidermal cells showed that Rh-ADF1 protein distributedubiquitously in the cell,while it preferentially located on filament networks of actins. Together,our results suggested that Rh-ADF1 may be involved in ethylene-regulated petal cell expansion at transcriptional level.
