Pentimone Isabella

RESEARCHER isabella.pentimone(AT)cnr.it 080.592.92215 publications: Orcid personnel details and activity: People Curriculum Vitae The research activity mainly concerns the study of fungal diseases of Mediterranean crops and plant / pathogen / microbial antagonist interactions investigation. The research carried out helped to determine the etiology of important plant diseases, to define the biology of pathogens, to develop advanced tools for the detection of biocontrol agents and pathogens, and to develop protection strategies for plants and ortho- fruit from infections, in field and post-harvest. Recent research works have concerned the microbial agent Pochonia…

Di Prisco Gennaro

RESEARCHER gennaro.dipriscoAT)ipsp.cnr.it 06.4993.27831 publications: Orcid personnel details and activity: People Curriculum Vitae Gennaro Di Prisco studies the ecosystem services of pollinators for the development of ecological and sustainable agriculture (IPSP4Pollinators). Specifically, he works with: monitoring the morpho-molecular biodiversity of the Apoidea insects in natural and agricultural ecosystems with the developing of agroecological techniques for the ecosystem services recovery; use of the honey bee to monitor environmental pollutants related to human activity (crop protection products, Particular matters, heavy metals, dioxins, etc.); study of the impact of environmental stressors, both biotic and…

Chiumenti Michela

RESEARCHER michela.chiumenti(AT)cnr.it 080.544.3071 publications: Orcid personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae High-throughput sequencing (HTS) technologies have become an important tool in phytopathology, since they allow either the identification and characterization of infectious agents, without the need of their prior knowledge, or the study of molecular interactions between such organisms and their host plants. In this context, since my Ph.D. in plant health in 2011, I started deepening my bioinformatics and statistical knowledge applied not only to viral diagnostics and metagenomics but also to the virus/viroid-plant interactions. Currently, my…

Daghino Stefania

RESEARCHER stefania.daghino(AT)cnr.it 011.397.7923 publications: ORCID personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae I’m a researcher of the IPSP since July 2020. My research is mainly focused on the identification and molecular characterization of mycoviruses, especially those associated with fungal plant-symbionts (e.g. ericoid mycorrhizal fungi), with the aim at investigating the effects of mycoviruses on the biology of their fungal host and on its interaction with the host plant. In addition, I’m interested in the virus-vector interaction mechanisms, in particular in the RNAi-mediated anti-viral response for the TSWV-thrips system. I’m…

Zampieri Elisa

RESEARCHER elisa.zampieri(AT)cnr.it 011.397.7912 publications: Orcid personnel details and activity: People Curriculum Vitae I am a III level Researcher since July 2020 at IPSP of Turin. MSc in Plant Biotechnology in 2006 and PhD in Biology and Biotechnology of Fungi in 2010, both at the University of Turin. During the PhD period and from 2010 to 2013, with a Post-Doc position by DBIOS, I have been involved in studies concerning both ecogenomics and genomics associated with truffles in presence of abiotic stresses. From 2013 to 2016, with a Post-Doc position at…
