The expression of genes encoding self-incompatibility ribonucleases (S-RNases) in Nicotiana alata were examined at both protein and RNA level for organ specificity. S-RNases recovered from stigmas and styles were indistinguishable by SDS-PAGE, chromatographic behaviour and RNase specific activity. The pistil S transcripts are heterogeneous in size, the stigma transcript being shorter and more heterogeneous than the transcripts in the style and ovary. RNase H analysis shows that this organ-specific difference is mainly in the length of the polyadenylate tail. By sequence analysis of cloned cDNAs we show that the transcript present in the stigma is derived from the same gene as the transcript in the style.
