This is a collaborative project between Dr. John McDowell and Dr. John Jelesko (Jelesko et al., PNAS 96 10302-7, McDowell et al., The Plant Cell 10, 1861-1874). The project is based on a high throughput genetic screen, to identify rare recombination events within gene clusters that provide resistance to the downy mildew pathogen Peronospora parasitica. We will address a wide variety of outstanding questions regarding the frequency and character of meiotic recombination within R gene clusters, as well as the functional consequences of the resulting chimeric R genes. This project is suitable for those with interests in plant molecular biology, meiotic recombination, molecular plant pathology, and/or molecular evolution. We are looking for a highly motivated individual with a Ph.D. in molecular biology, genetics, or a related field. Interested individuals should contact either John McDowell (johnmcd@vt.edu) or John Jelesko (jelesko@vt.edu). Virginia Tech has an active plant biotechnology community and is expanding in the areas of molecular plant pathology and bioinformatics. Our labs are housed in the recently constructed Fralin Biotechnology Center (www.biotech.vt.edu). Virginia Tech is located in a relaxed, attractive mountain community, which contains all of the standard college town amenities as well as easy access to exceptional outdoor recreation opportunities (www.bev.net). Virginia Tech is committed to equal opportunity employment, and we particularly encourage applications from underrepresented groups. John G.
