Several of the members of NCR-173 have collaborated on a manuscript describing the use of the Green Fluorescent Protein in studies of plant-fungal interactions. This manuscript has been published in "Applied and Environmental Microbiology" (Lorang, J.M., Tuori, R.P. , Martinez, J.P., Sawyer. T.L. Redman, R.S., Rollins, J.A.. Wolpert. T.J., Johnson, K.B.
