Personal Info

Dr. Konstantinos Bertsouklis is a Research and Teaching Associate Laboratory of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture AUA. He graduated from the Department of Crop Production of AUA in 1993; in 2000 he completed his postgraduate studies specializing in Floriculture at the Department of Crop Production Science of AUA. His doctoral thesis was presented at the Laboratory of Floriculture and Landscape Architecture of AUA (2012) specializing in micropropagation, seed ecophysiology and phylogenetic study with morphological and molecular markers (RAPDS-DNA). From 1993 to 2005 he worked as an agronomist in the Department of Horticulture in the Municipality of Piraeus, as a manager of urban green in municipal districts. His teaching experience relates to laboratory courses at undergraduate and postgraduate level as well as lectures-courses in postgraduate programs at other Departments and Universities. His research interests focus on native species and their use as ornamental plants, as well as the study of species whose populations are pressured by human activity or other factors contributing to their conservation; proliferation-tissue culture, the study of soil mixtures with native species, vegetation management, the use of native species in archaeological sites, the ecophysiology of seeds, the control of the development of floricultural species and the phylogenetic study using molecular and morphological of markers. He is curator of the Botanical Garden of the Laboratory of Landscaping and Architecture and has been trained and collaborated with the University Botanical Gardens of Padua, Florence and Bologna.
