RESEARCHER giulia.atzori(AT)cnr.it 055.522.5596 publications: ORCID personal details and research activity: People Curriculum Vitae My research activity aims at studying the response of edible species to saline stress at the growth, physiological and at the biochemical level. The species under study are characterized by different degrees of salt tolerance, and most recently I focused on halophytic species that have naturally adapted to saline environments developing a series of mechanisms that allow a tolerance to saline concentrations up to 50% sea water. This research has a threefold objective: i) increasing food production…

LIFE MycoRestore aims to demonstrate the feasibility of sustainable forestry practices based on the use of mycological resources in Mediterranean forests in Italy, Spain and Portugal. The project (based on three main actions: MycoSylvicolture, MycoEconomy and MicoControl) will help to develop management methodologies to make forests more resistant to pest and disease, and will promote a more resource-efficient management approach of forests and the circular economy. Project Leader: Gianni Della Rocca IPSP personnel: Arcangela Frascella, Roberto Danti, Giovanni Emiliani, Sara Barberini, Stefano Secci. Start: 01/07/2019 End: 30/04/2023
