Director of the Plant Biotechnology Group of the DBB-University of Pavia Research activity : 1) Role of DNA repair in the plant response to abiotic stress. Aim of the research is the molecular characterisazion of genes involved in the response to genotoxic stress (DNA Damage Response-DDR), as useful tools to detect the level of abiotic stress tolerance in crops. The research activity at the Plant Biotechnology Laboratory has led to the isolation and molecular characterisation of novel genes involved in DNA repair processes in planta. 2) Molecular profile of seed quality. Aim of the research is the identification of molecular indicators of seed quality (vigor). DNA repair pathways are activated during the early phase of seed germination (imbibition), when the so-called pre-germinative metabolism is triggered. A working system has been established, using imbibed seeds from model plants (Legumes, Medicago truncatula; Solanacee, Petunia hybrida) in order to validate the role of novel DNA repair genes during the pre-germinative metabolism. A translational research project has been subsequently started focusing on commercially relevant horticultural species and cereals, in collaboration with Seed Companies (ATLAS srl, APSOVSEMENTI srl, Bejo BV, Hoopmann Group), Breeders (NIRP International), and with the Research Institutes CREA-SCV (S. Angelo Lodigiano, LO), CREA-ORL (Montanaso Lombardo, LO), and CREA-FSO (Sanremo, IM). 3) DNA repair mechanisms induced by ionizing radiations (IR) in plant cells: basic and applied (in vitro breeding) aspects.
