Post doctoral position is available to investigate the molecular
genetics of plant-plant interactions. We are interested in defining
the signaling pathways that regulate how plants grow in the vicinity
of other plants. The goal of the post doctoral research is to assign
biochemical and in vivo functions to transcripts hypothesized as
signal mediators between plants (Matvienko et al., 2001 Plant J.
25(3) 1-15. More details of our research can be found at

The successful candidate will have extensive expertise in molecular
biology, yeast genetics and/or biochemistry. Experience in
bioinformatics highly preferred. Two year appointment with salary
commensurate with qualifications. Applicants should send a letter of
interest, C.V., and a list of references (including telephone numbers
and e-mail addresses):
