Self S-RNase reduces the expression of two pollen-specific COBRA genes to inhibit pollen tube growth in pear

Abstract Due to self-incompatibility (SI) prevents self-fertilization, natural or artificial cross-pollination has been conducted in many orchards to stabilize fruit yield. However, it is still puzzled which routes of self S-RNase arresting pollen tube growth. Herein, 17 COBRA genes were isolated fr...
