Paolo Boccacci

My research activity is mainly focused on: genotype-environment interaction; plant-pathogen interaction; breeding; genetic biodiversity. During my PhD and postdoc grants, I coordinated and carried out research about the genetic characterization of hazelnut (Corylus avellana L.) germplasm using microsatellite markers, concerning: fingerprinting, recovery and preservation of biodiversity, population genetics, origin and spread of cultivars
