I obtained a MSc in Plant Biotechnology in 2008 and PhD in Biology and Biotechnology of Fungi in 2012, both at the University of Turin. During my PhD I have been involved in studies aimed at elucidating the molecular mechanisms of mycorrhizal symbiosis and fruiting body production in the black truffle Tuber melanosporum, through innovative molecular biology techniques (glycoarray, RT-qPCR combined with Laser Microdissection…
Sportelli Giorgia
Research Fellow, Turin HeadquarterRESEARCH FELLOW giorgia.sportelli@ipsp.cnr.it publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae In the realm of plant pathology, I conducted research focused on the molecular defense responses of tomato (Solanum lycopersicum L.) to infection with Tomato spotted wilt orthotospovirus (TSWV). I delved into the pathways regulating the reduction of cellular ROS concentrations, exploring, for the first time, six selected GRX genes in tomatoes. The results of this project, conducted in collaboration with CNR-IBBR in Portici, have been published as a scientific article. Subsequently, I participated in the E-Crops project…

Volpe Francesco
Associate, Turin HeadquarterASSOCIATE publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae Graduated in Agricultural Sciences at the University of Turin, I have always focused my academic and research path on the study of Xylella fastidiosa, initially investigating the bacterium itself and subsequently concentrating on its main insect vector. Since 2022, I have been conducting research on Philaenus spumarius (meadow spittlebug), the primary vector of Xylella fastidiosa in Europe. In particular, I have focused on the detailed study of the insect’s reproductive biology, with specific attention to ovarian and embryonic dormancy…
