CO2 CAPTuring from nature-based building TILEs (CAP-TILE)
The project LIFE CAPT-TILE, financed by the European Union, aims at developing innovative and easily accessible solutions for a green and sustainable architecture. This project focuses on the integration of novel clay tiles with urban greening systems able to host a layer of “synthetic mineral soil” which allows plants to grow on green surfaces, like roofs and façades, thus contributing to capture CO2 and remove pollutants from the atmosphere. This solution, designed to be light, modular and simple to set up, seeks to significantly reduce the costs of installation and…

RESEARCHER francesca.alderotti(AT)cnr.it publications: Orcid Curriculum Vitae My research activity is aimed at studying the physiological and biochemical responses of Mediterranean tree species and energy crops to abiotic stresses. In particular, I have conducted research to investigate the physiological responses and defence mechanisms displayed by plants when exposed to variations in the main environmental factors such as water availability, temperature and light under both natural and controlled conditions. The techniques used to study the physiological responses of plants to abiotic stresses, range from dendrochronological measurements, gas exchanges, chlorophyll fluorescence water relations,…

ASSOCIATE marcogebiola(AT)cnr.it 081.253.9248 publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae My research focuses on a broad range of topics, from systematics, taxonomy and evolutionary biology of insects (mostly parasitic wasps) and bacterial symbionts to biological control and vector biology. I have published systematic, taxonomic and karyological revisions of important groups of parasitoid wasps often used as biocontrol agents, on disentangling the roles of symbionts in manipulating the reproduction of their insect hosts, reproductive isolation between closely related species, on the phylogeography of parasitoids associated to invasive species,…

ASSOCIATE caruso@unitus.it publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae The research activities have focused on the isolation and structural and functional characterization of Pathogenesis-Related (PR) genes and proteins using different plant species. Molecular modeling and site-specific mutagenesis techniques have been used to study the structure-function correlation, particularly demonstrating that the ribonuclease activity of wheat PR4 proteins is associated with their antifungal activity. Additionally, the effects of fungal infection, wounding, or the exogenous application of phytohormones on the induction of PR genes and proteins in different plant systems…
