A postdoctoral research position is available immediately in the School of Plant Sciences at the University of Arizona to participate in a United Soybean Board sponsored research project that focuses altering the expression of seed-specific transcription factors to mediate changes in seed development and composition. The primary approach will be to make use over-expression and RNAi of specific transcription factors in soybean and assess the resulting compositional phenotypes. The incumbent postdoctoral associate will assemble transformation constructs, transform soybean using biolistic transformation, regenerate plants and subsequently seeds, and assess phenotype with rt-PCR , RNA -transcriptome, and proteomics. This data will be used to design further alterations of transcription factors to mediate additional seed composition changes to improve the quality of seeds and to create new value-added seeds for food and feed. Our laboratories have new approaches to understanding and altering seed content that will be exploited in the research to be conducted.
Duties will involve assembling DNA constructs and vectors, transformation of soybean, tissue culture, plant growth in laboratory and greenhouse work, assaying the resulting transgenics using molecular and proteomic assays including PCR , rt-PCR , proteomics (2D gels and Mudpit) and analysis, RNAi seq transcriptome and analysis.
