Biography:
Giuseppe Mannino, a Junior Assistant Professor in the Plant Physiology Unit at the University of Turin, is dedicated to studying plant-derived bioactive compounds. His expertise lies in conducting comprehensive metabolomic and transcriptomic analyses to characterize these compounds. Mannino's research delves into natural biostimulants that can trigger substantial phenotypic and physiological shifts in plants. Employing advanced methodologies such as gas and liquid chromatography coupled with mass spectrometry, he conducts thorough metabolomic assessments. Furthermore, Mannino evaluates gene expression using cutting-edge techniques like RNA sequencing (RNAseq) analysis or quantitative real-time polymerase chain reaction (Qrt-Pcr).
