Research Interests We focus our research in understanding plant sexual reproduction, mainly working with the model plant Arabidopsis thaliana and to some extent with crop species. Specifically, we are interested in: - Epigenetic control of meiotic recombination in Arabidopsis - Histone post-translational modifications and ovule development in Arabidopsis - Identification of genes underlying sexual polyploidization in potato - Epigenomics of tomato reproduction

Actual Research sectors Analysis of plant reproductive system through molecular approaches. Actually Dr.Pupilli is studying apomixis, that is a clonal plant reproduction by seeds. The overall objective of the research is the isolation of the genetic determinants of apomixis in a wild apomictic species Paspalum simplex with the perspective to develop an apomixis system for crops. Main achievements are: i) characterization and mapping of the apomixis locus, ii) establishing synteny relationships with rice genome, iii) isolation of candidate genes through partial sequencing of apomixis-linked BAC and comparative transcriptomic analysis. Recent Scientific Activities. A) Induction of new variability by somatic hybridization B) Molecular markers of the analysis of natural and inducted genetic A) During the first phase of his career Dr. Pupilli obtained and characterized several somatic hybrid plants combining the genome of alfalfa with those of M.coerulea (S+C), M.arborea (S+A) and M.falcata (S+F). B) After a stage at the MPI of Cologne, Dr. Pupilli used molecular markers to study the genome composition of somatic hybrids and the genetic variability in forage and turf plant populations.
