Stefania Galletti (Foggia, Italy, May 31st, 1963), PhD in Seed Science and Technology after a degree in Agricultural Science and a Master in Biostatistics, has worked as a permanent Researcher at CREA – Centro di Ricerca Agricoltura e Ambiente (CREA-AA) in Bologna, Italy, since 1999. Her activity is focused on the evaluation of natural compounds and microorganisms (fungi, bacteria, algae) possessing biological activity, to be used for improving crop and human health. In particular, her research activity deals with the following topics: i) Non-conventional crop protection by means of biocontrol agents (Trichoderma), Brassicaceae derived compounds (glucosinolate-myrosinase system), and phytoextracts (Arundo donax, blue-green and marine algae): in vitro and in vivo effectiveness and mechanisms of action (induced resistance); ii) Agroindustry: technological application of microorganisms and enzymes for the bioconversion of lignocellulosic biomass for energetic purposes; iii) Phytoterapy and nutraceutics: extraction, biochemical characterization, and biological activity of natural compounds of plant origin. She is author or coauthor of more than 100 national and international scientific journal publications.
