A polymerase chain reaction (PCR)-based strategy and cDNA library screening were used to clone an exo-β-glucanase gene (LP-Exol) from Lilium Iongiflorum pollen tubes. The LP-Exol sequence showed a high level of homology to that of reported plant exo-β-glucan hydrolases. Phylogenetic analysis demonstrated that there was close relationship between LP-Exol and other exo-glucan hydrolases in Poacea plants. Northern analysis indicated that LP-Exol transcripts stored in pollen grains at low levels; LP-Exol transcription level enhanced at 2 h after the onset of pollen incubation and remained relatively high during pollen tube elongation. Moreover, the expression of LP-Exol was undetectable in petals, filaments, stigmas, styles, ovaries, leaves, and stems. These results suggest that LP-Exol gene is a late pollen gene, specifically contributing to the regulation of lily pollen germination and pollen tube growth.展开更多
