  1. The treatments were conducted at the anthesis day (0 dpa), and the measurements were conducted at 4 dpa. Means (±SE) of three independent experiments were calculated
  2. aLetters indicate differences between the treated ovaries with statistical significance at P ≤ 0.05 (t-test). The same letter means not significantly different; different letters means significantly different
  3. bUnderline words means the treatment can induce etiolation of ovary tips at 4dpa and lead to fruit abortion
  4. c‘Pollination I’ means hand pollination with active pollens; ‘Pollination II’ means hand pollination with irradiated pollens (γ-ray irradiation at a dose of 200 Gy)
  5. dMixed solution of NAA (50 mg/L), CPPU (50 mg/L), GA3 (50 mg/L) and EBR (10 mg/L)
  6. eP/A/T: number of parthenocarpic ovaries/number of abortive ovaries/total treated ovaries; etiolation phenotype of ovary tips is the principal identifying symbol to identify whether the fruits are set or aborted since 2dpa
  7. fOvaries of 8419 s-1 were pollinated at 0 dpa, the hormone inhibitor treatments were conducted 3 h after pollination
  8. gMixed solution of TIBA (50 mg/L), Lovastatin (50 mg/L), uniconazole (50 mg/L) and Brz (10 mg/L)
