个人简介
Is author of about 180 publications with total impact factors of about 100. Has been frequently invited as speakers or chairman in many International Congresses and meetings. Is inventor in more than 20 patents on new biotechnologies applied to Plant Pathology. Has established the Trichoderma and Gliocladium International Working Group with 250 members of 35 countries. Has been or is responsible scientist or coordinator in many research projects funded by national and international agencies (UE, NATO etc.) focused on the development on new disease control methods in Plant Pathology. Collaborates with the most prestigious international journals of the plant pathology area, and with various companies that develop and commercialize environmentally sound methods for plant disease control.
The research group directed by Prof. M. Lorito works in the newly established Biocontrol Laboratories at the Department, and is focused on the study of the molecular basis of mycoparasitism and antagonism and on the genetic engineering of plants and microorganisms to control important fungal pathogens. Prof. Lorito's group have cloned and characterized a number of genes and enzymes produced by Trichoderma, and have carried conclusive studies on the role of chitinases, glucanases and antibiotics in the biocontrol mechanism of these fungi. This group is among the first ones to have studied and used antagonistic, beneficial fungi (mainly of the genera Trichoderma and Gliocladium) as a new source of resistance genes for biocontrol of plant pests. Innovative research at a molecular levels have also been made to improve the understanding of complex interaction occurring between plants and pathogenic fungi. The group have a substantial scientific production as papers published in international journals and several patents and patent applications.
