A research team from the Wuhan Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, carried out a systematic study in the subtropical mountain forest of Badagongshan.
            A research team led by Prof. WANG Guodong from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology has developed a highly sensitive liquid chromatography–mass spectrometry (LC–MS) detection method capable of distinguishing between the two chiral forms of α-bitter acids.
A research team led by Prof. ZHANG Peng from the Institute of Biophysics has uncovered the cortical microcircuit mechanisms underlying the human bottom-up attentional saliency map using vascular space occupancy (VASO)-based laminar functional magnetic resonance imaging (fMRI) with ultra-high spatial specificity at 7 Tesla.
            A team of Chinese scientists has uncovered a hidden 3D structure in rice DNA that allows the crop to grow more grain while using less nitrogen fertilizer. The study, led by Prof. FU Xiangdong from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, could guide the next "green revolution" toward higher yields and more sustainable farming.
A research team led by Prof. HOU Xingliang from the South China Botanical Garden of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has used genome-wide association studies (GWAS) to identify a rare allele that controls seed protein content and was lost during soybean domestication.
A new literature review by Xinjiang Institute of Ecology and Geography has unveiled the significant potential of Strigolactones as plant root hormones for boosting crop resilience and productivity under stressful environments. This work offers a promising, sustainable pathway to develop stress-resistant crop cultivars and novel agrochemicals for sustainable crop production under challenging conditions.
