Gloria De Mori

Gloria De Mori is a researcher at the department of agricultural, food, environmental and animal sciences (DI4A) at the University of Udine and a member of the tree crops research group. After completing a bachelor’s in biotechnology and a master’s in plant and animal biotechnology, she earned a PhD focusing on the genomic region controlling sharka resistance in apricot. Her postdoctoral work centered on actinidia, including developing molecular markers for early sex discrimination, optimizing transformation protocols for hermaphrodite plants, and mapping resistance to Psa. She have also mapped genomic regions linked to downy mildew resistance in grapevine and currently work on Actinidia improvement projects.
