Nematodes are the most important parasites of plants and animals worldwide contributing to human misery both through direct infection and through losses to livestock and agricultural crops. Driven largely by genome projects several parasitic nematode species have emerged as model organisms. These include Brugia malayi 1 a filarial nematode parasitizing the lymphatic system and causing elephantiasis in humans and root-knot nematodes of the genus Meloidogyne 2 3 which attack essentially all crop plants. How these parasites are able to evade host defense responses and establish the intimate association within the host necessary for feeding and subsequent reproduction has been a key question over the past 50 years 4 . It is believed that secretions from the nematode are crucial in invasion and establishment in the host and the advent of molecular and genomic technologies has allowed researchers to catalog and describe a large set of secreted proteins from plant-parasitic and human animal-parasitic nematodes. Recently the power of tandem mass spectrometry coupled with liquid chromatography LC-MS-MS has been used to experimentally identify peptides defining the parasites secreted proteins the secretome and two recent publications demonstrate the tremendous progress that has been made.
