Portici Unit, Research FellowRESEARCH FELLOW lorenzogoglia(AT)cnr.it publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae During my academic journey, I specialized in the morphological identification of Heterocera Lepidoptera, with a particular focus on the Tortricidae family. This specialization was reinforced through active participation in entomological expeditions conducted in various countries, including central and southern Italy, central-eastern Greece, Spain, and Ethiopia. Additionally, I contributed to the development of innovative techniques for managing Thaumetopoea pityocampa (Denis and Schiffermüller, 1775), an important forest parasite. In Greece, I also had the opportunity to participate in the…

Portici Unit, Research FellowRESEARCH FELLOW valentinomariaguastaferro(AT)cnr.it publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae During my master’s degree I focused on the study of the beneficial interaction between Trichoderma – Brachypodium Distachyon through a molecular approach. In particular, the epigeal and hypogeal portions, taken separately from the plant, were used for the purpose of extracting RNA and sequencing it. The analysis of RNA-Seq data led to the identification of genes up- and down-regulated during the interaction of the plant with two different strains of Trichoderma. This work aims to identify genes…
