\r\nResearch studies performed mainly in the field of plant molecular biology and genomics, using molecular, bioinformatic, biochemical, cytochemical, and cytophotometric techniques. In the last years, his activity has been especially focused on structural and functional genomics, using next generation sequencing technologies. His research lines include i) studies on the structure of plant genome, especially the repetitive component of the genome and its variation, also in relation to phenotypic effects of such variations, ii) analyses of gene expression in plants exposed to abiotic stresses, as drought and trace metals, iii) analyses of somatic polyploidy in plant tissues (in maize and wheat).
\r\nResearch activity is documented by more than 100 publications on international peer reviewed journals.","unipi-persone-link-esterno-cv":"","unipi-persone-modalita-ricevimento":"\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n","unipi-persone-luogo-ricevimento":"\r\nEdificio di Genetica del Dipartimento di Scienze Agrarie, Alimentari e Agro-ambientali, I piano\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n","unipi-persone-ore-ricevimento":"Marted\u00ec 16.00-17.00, ma l'orario \u00e8 solo indicativo: si consiglia che lo studente invii una e-mail per concordare il ricevimento e sar\u00e0 ricevuto entro 1-2 giorni\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n\r\n","unipi-persone-telefono":"050 2216663","unipi-persone-sitoweb":"http:\/\/www.agr.unipi.it\/dbpa\/","unipi-persone-cariche":"","unipi-persone-link-orario-lezioni":"https:\/\/unipi.prod.up.cineca.it\/calendarioPubblico\/matricola=005966","unipi-persone-link-registro-lezioni":"https:\/\/unimap.unipi.it\/registri\/registri.php?ri=005966&tmplt=principale.tpl","unipi-persone-settore-scientifico":"Genetica Agraria AGRI-06\/A","unipi-persone-ruolo":"Professore Ordinario","unipi-persone-arpi":"https:\/\/arpi.unipi.it\/cris\/rp\/rp12125","unipi-persone-pubblicazioni":"
