Abstract: Based on our previous work,a gene encoding MYB transcription factor was cloned from Ammopiptanthus mongolicus,and it was designated as AmMYB4-like. The full length of the AmMYB4-like cDNA was 1,145 bp,including a 960 bp opening reading frame(ORF)which encoded a 319-amino acid peptide. AmMYB4-like contained R2 and R3 conserved domains and belonged to the R2R3-MYB subfamily. Quantitative real-time PCR(qRT-PCR)analyses revealed that AmMYB4-like was up-regulated in leaves under low temperature and drought stresses,but it was mainly induced by drought stress in roots. Plant expression vector pPZP212- AmMYB4-like was constructed for further research of AmMYB4-like.

Key words: Ammopiptanthus mongolicus, AmMYB4-lik, gene cloning, expression analysis, construction of plant expression vector
