Dipartimento di Scienze agroalimentari, ambientali e animali
Via delle Scienze 206, 33100 Udine
This RU is majorly involved in WP3-4, and less in WP1. The specific nano-skills of this RU are the result of researcher experts' contributions in plant physiology and agroecology. The RU UniUD will be in charge of studying the fate of nHAP in soil profile and the release of N and P. Moreover, the contribution of RU UniUD will consist of studies on the physiological response of maize plants to fertilization with nHAP-U compared to the conventional N fertilization strategy. In addition, RU UniUD will carry investigations on plant physiology parameters, photosynthetic efficiency, and growth and elemental analyses on plant fractions at the RU UniUD facilities.
