Poly(A)+ and Poly(A) RNAs were isolated from the total RNAs of heat-treated pear leaves using a polyA SpinTM mRNA Isolation Kit (New England Biolabs, Ipswich, MA, USA). T4 polynucleotide kinase (New England Biolabs), RNA 5′ pyrophosphohydrolase (New England Biolabs), and 5′–3′ exoribonuclease (New England Biolabs) were used for the RNA digestion, according to a previous study58 (link). After digestion, the RNAs were purified using the modified cetyltrimenthyl ammonium bromide (CTAB) method59 (link) and subjected to RT-PCR. Primer sequences are provided in Supplementary Data 1.
