In this study, we investigated to evaluate differential expression of genes encoding lipid transfer proteins (LTP) by acute and chronic gamma irradiation in rice. After acute and chronic gamma irradiation by 100 Gy and 400 Gy to rice plant, necrotic lesion was observed in the leaf blade and anthocyanin contents were increased. We isolated a total of 21 rice lipid transfer protein (LTP) genes in the TIGR database, and these genes were divided into four different groups on the basis of nucleotide sequences. The LTP genes also were classified as different four classes according to expression pattern using RT-PCR. Group A, B contained genes with increased expression and decreased expression in acute and chronic, respectively. Group C contained genes with contrasted expression pattern. Group D wasn't a regular pattern. But the specific affinity was not obtained between two grouping.
