To identify genes from the obligatory biotrophic oomycete Peronospora parasitica that are expressed during infection in Arabidopsis thaliana we employed cDNA-amplified fragment length polymorphism (AFLP) display. cDNA-AFLP fragments from infected and non-infected leaves were separated in parallel by gel electrophoresis and displayed by autoradiography. Most differential gene fragments were derived from P. parasitica.
