The APETALA2 (AP2) domain defines a large family of DNA binding proteins. It has been demonstrated that the AP2 proteins have important functions in the transcriptional regulation of a variety of biologic processes related to growth and development in various responses to drought and other abiotic stresses. In this essay, recent researches on the AP2 transcription factors, such as the molecular characterization, expression patterns in responses to drought and other abiotic stresses, the roles of ABA on drought responding which were mediated by AP2 transcription factors, transcription regulation mechanisms, and the roles of overexpression of AP2 transcription factor on plant drought tolerance, etc. have been overviewed. Deepening the understanding of signaling and the corresponding transduction pathways that are initiated via drought stress stimuli will play crucial roles for providing the theoretical basis for variety breeding with promising drought tolerance in the future.
