    China News Service, April 9th ​​(Reporter Chen Jing) The reporter learned on the 9th that Chinese scholars have taken the lead in deciphering the molecular mechanism of pollen-stigma mutual recognition in the reproductive development of plants, and clarified that flowering plants recognize pollen of this species and reject others.


    "Science" magazine published the latest results obtained by Li Chao's research group in the School of Life Sciences, East China Normal University after 4 years of experimental research.


    Li Chao said: "Pollen uses related substances in its covering to inhibit the level of reactive oxygen species maintained by the corresponding receptor kinase signaling pathway in the stigma, thereby affecting pollen hydration.


    When talking about the application prospects of this important basic research result, Li Chao said: "In agricultural research, we can use the pollen-stigma specific recognition mechanism to integrate the excellent traits of different species of plants through hybridization, and then Obtain high-yield, high-quality, and high-resistant varieties.


    It is reported that the average age of the research group is only 29 years old, and a team of more than ten people has completed a large number of sample accumulation and testing data research in 4 years.
