Biography
Federica Della Rovere investigated the mechanisms affecting the initiation and development of adventitious roots in planta and in vitro systems, with a special interest in the genetic control affecting this organogenic process and in the definition of stem cell niche of the apical root meristem in Arabidopsis. She is also interested in the somatic embryogenic process in numerous species, and the genetic and hormonal control involved in xylogenesis.
