Main Research lines:

• Evaluation of concepts and definition of bacterial taxa; application of new techniques (MLSA, comparative genomics) and development of genetic databases and their application in taxonomy; definition of ecological characteristics
• Analysis of microbial communities and ecologically relevant organisms (Pseudomonas, Roseobacter), as well as the study of their environment (physical and chemical constraints)
• Microbiology of environmental pollution; modelling for predicting coastal pollution
