genetic resources of field elm
optimization of protocols for in vitro
vegetative propagation
Research activity in Prunus avium
autochthonous species, rare in
mixed hardwood forests
extensively planted in many
European countries because of
highly valued wood
ex situ and in situ conservation
of genetic resources of wild
cherry in collaboration with
Institute for Fruit Growing and
Viticulture
Research activity in Fagus sylvatica
