Miotti Niccolò

RESEARCH FELLOW niccolo.miotti(AT)ipsp.cnr.it publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae My research activity has focused on the plant-pathogen interaction in the Cannabis sativa system, with the aim of deepening knowledge on viral infections. This study has been based on the use of classic molecular techniques such as RT-PCR, qPCR, and dPCR, along with small RNA sequencing (NGS). In particular, I have developed and utilized viral vectors as a central part of my approach to understand the host-virus interaction in this plant system.

Berto Hari

RESEARCH FELLOW hari.berto(AT)ipsp.cnr.it publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae I graduated in Forest Systems Science and Technology in 2023. I did a thesis in the field of phytopathology studying the fungus Biscogniauxia nummularia, the causal agent of carbonaceous canker of beech, carrying out field and laboratory investigations. I was able to collaborate with CNR-IPSP in the realization of the thesis with the opportunity to learn traditional and molecular diagnostic techniques, such as qPCR, starting from the isolation of the pathogen from asymptomatic woody tissues of beech…

RESEARCH FELLOW francesca.canuto(AT)ipsp.cnr.it 011.397.7929 publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae I graduated from the University of Turin in Natural Sciences and Plant Biotechnology. During my Master I worked on the gene regulation of the immune response of honey bees following viral infections and attacks by the ectoparasitic mite Varroa destructor and then on the diagnostics of plant pathogens transmitted by vector insects, such as Xylella fastidiosa and the phytoplasma associated with Flavescence Dorée disease. During my PhD at the University of Bordeaux (France), I worked on…

ASSOCIATE francesco.ferrini(AT)unifi.it 055.457.4033 publications: ORCID personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae Since 1998, the applicant’s research and experimentation activity has been concentrated in the nursery and urban green sectors. Initially, research was conducted aimed at developing systems to identify physiological stress on tree plants, to better understand the dynamics of their health. Subsequently, various nursery breeding techniques were evaluated for ornamental species, both shrubs and trees, in order to optimize cultivation practices to improve plant vitality. A significant area of research has been the investigation of the biochemical…
