Gel electrophoresis-based and shotgun approaches are the most employed proteomic platforms in plant biology research, with the latter replacing the former in the last years. We have compared 2-DE-MALDI-TOF/TOF and GeLC-Orbitrap/MS analyses using the same protein extracts from Quercus ilex cotyledons at different development stages. The results…[Read more]
