ARS will assist and train a visiting scientist on methods of extraction of total and secreted proteins from a soilborne pathogen, resolution of proteins in 2-dimensional gel electrophoresis, protein spot picking and processing spots for identification using MALDI-TOF/TOF or a similar mass-spectroscopic method, and bioinformatics data analysis and interpretation of results. In addition, the Cooperator will add plant pathological expertise to this investigation.
