This action funds an NSF Postdoctoral Fellowship in Microbial Biology for FY2003. The fellowship supports training and research on the basic biology of protozoan, microalgal, fungal, archaeal, bacterial and viral species that are not generally considered to be model organisms. Further, it provides opportunities for recent doctoral recipients to obtain additional training in microbial biology, to gain research experience under the sponsorship of established scientists, and to broaden his/her scientific horizons beyond the research experiences during the undergraduate and graduate training. These fellowships are further designed to assist new scientists to direct their research efforts across traditional disciplinary lines and to avail themselves of unique research resources, sites, and facilities, including foreign locations. The research and training plan is entitled "The role of secreted proteins in the virulence of an apoplast-colonizing plant pathogenic fungus." Septoria lycopersici is a pathogenic fungus of tomato that relies on the secretion of molecules into the space between plant cells (the apoplast) to cause disease. The secreted proteins of S. lycopersici are being identified and characterized with the goal of determining their role in pathogenesis.

该行动为2003财年的微生物生物学提供了NSF博士后奖学金。 奖学金支持对原生动物，微藻，真菌，古细菌，细菌和病毒物种的基本生物学的培训和研究，这些生物学通常不被视为模型生物。此外，它为最近的博士获奖者提供了获得微生物生物学培训的机会，在既定科学家的赞助下获得研究经验，并在本科和研究生培训期间将其科学视野扩大到研究经验之外。这些奖学金的进一步旨在帮助新科学家指导他们在传统纪律线上的研究工作，并利用包括外国地点在内的独特研究资源，站点和设施。该研究和训练计划的题为“分泌蛋白在凋亡殖民化植物致病真菌的毒力中的作用”。 Septoria lycopersici是一种番茄的致病真菌，依赖于分子分泌到植物细胞之间的空间（凋亡）引起疾病。 在确定其在发病机理中的作用的目的是确定和特征的乳杆菌的分泌蛋白。
