A research team from the South China Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences assembled a high-quality, haplotype-resolved, telomere-to-telomere genome of the jade vine. By integrating multi-omics datasets including transcriptomics and metabolomics, the team systematically decoded the formation of this rare floral color from genomic, metabolic, and transcriptional regulatory angles.

A research team has developed a novel electron tomography method that can quantitatively reveal the three-dimensional (3D) morphology and crystallographic features of grain boundaries in nanostructured metals, providing a powerful tool for understanding the stability and performance of these advanced materials.

A team led by Prof. SUN Jian and Prof. YU Jiafeng from the Dalian Institute of Chemical Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences proposed a novel design strategy that spatially decouples active sites through a strong metal-support interaction (SMSI)-driven overlayer structure, enabling efficient methanol synthesis from CO₂.

A study led by Prof. YANG Yuanhe from the Institute of Botany revealed that nitrogen fixation by microbes associated with mosses is a critical factor in sustaining plant growth in permafrost ecosystems under warming conditions, and provided the first direct evidence that the moss-associated biological nitrogen fixation responds much more sensitively to warming than soil nitrogen transformations.

An international research team led by the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has achieved advances in ion beam manipulation technology, overcoming a long-standing obstacle in the development of a self-adaptive, self-powered ion beam guide.

A research team led by Prof. WANG Wei from the Institute of Botany of the Chinese Academy of Sciences predicted quantitatively the potential dynamic changes of the entire Arctic flora from now until 2100 under four greenhouse gas emission scenarios based on an ensemble modelling approach.

A team led by researchers from the Institute of Zoology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has developed a novel therapeutic strategy termed synthetic peptide-programmed lysosome-targeting chimeras (SPYTAC).

A research team led by Prof. WU Chenxi from the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, has uncovered new insights into how life-stage-dependent processes within the macroalgal phycosphere control epiphytic community assembly and resistome dissemination in an oligotrophic lake. Their results highlight that Cladophora blooms function not only as modifiers of littoral biogeochemistry but also as important sources and amplifiers of antibiotic resistance risk.

Researchers from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science of the Chinese Academy of Sciences developed NPP-GPT, an artificial intelligence framework that uses pre-trained large language models to accurately forecast NPP operating parameters over the long term.

Researchers from the Institute of Biophysics, and the Center for Excellence in Molecular Cell Science have reported new insights into how the protein Spef1 regulates ciliary beating, providing potential directions for ciliary disease research.

Researchers from the Institute of Modern Physics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Beijing Normal University, Shenzhen Technology University, and Tianjin University, have developed a novel two-dimensional coincidence time-of-flight mass spectrometry method for the precise measurement of isotopic abundance.

Researchers from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture of the Chinese Academy of Sciences systematically investigated the effects of granulated straw application at varying intensities (0, 30, 60, and 90 t/ha) and nutrient supplementation regimes (C/N ratios of 40 and 25) on soil organic carbon accumulation and underlying mechanisms.

Researchers from the Institute of Modern Physics have observed an isomer in the rare, extremely neutron-deficient nucleus of ytterbium-150 for the first time, leading to the identification of a unique "isomeric relay" mechanism that advances our understanding of nuclear structure.

A research team from the South China Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences made a systematic comparison of soil microbiomes in urban parks and natural forests. The results reveal that urbanization profoundly reconfigures microbial community composition, functional capacity, and evolutionary trajectories, based on.

Researchers from the Shenyang Institute of Automation have developed magnetically controlled microrobots made from diatoms for the treatment of glioblastoma using photodynamic therapy. These microrobots exhibit excellent magnetic responsiveness and programmable motion capabilities, enabling them to precisely target and navigate to glioblastoma lesion areas.

A new study resolves a long-standing puzzle in Earth's interior dynamics: how trace amounts of melt can produce the distinct geophysical signals observed at the base of the upper mantle. It shows that volatile-rich carbonate melts can form interconnected networks and act as a "super-wetting agent" at depth, ultimately reconciling laboratory experiments with real-world geophysical data.

A research team led by Prof. LIU Yuechen from the Institute of Vertebrate Paleontology and Paleoanthropology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, collaborating with international scientists, has provided new insights into the genetic origin, migration routes, and dispersal patterns of Austronesian-speaking populations in Remote Oceania.

A research team led by Prof. WANG Peng from the Hefei Institutes of Physical Science, in collaboration with international partners, has published a comprehensive review on liquid–liquid phase separation (LLPS)-driven membraneless organelles (MLOs) and their emerging applications in biotechnology.
