Researchers from the Single-Cell Center at the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, together with collaborators, developed an artificial intelligence-assisted Raman-activated cell sorting (AI-RACS) system. This system automated the isolation and functional analysis of aluminum-tolerant microorganisms (ATMs) from acidic soil, marking a shift from manual, labor-intensive procedures to high-throughput automated workflows.
Visual systems of both humans and animals can detect life motion from the environment at the earliest stage of visual processing, a recent joint research by scientists from the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) uncovered. Results of the study were published in Nature Communications on Nov. 7, entitled "Detecting biological motion signals in human and monkey superior colliculus: a subcortical-cortical pathway for biological motion perception".
In their new study, researchers from Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) and their collaborators explored the challenges of rapid urbanization in achieving ecosystem services (ESs) satisfaction and equity.
Recently, a collaborative research team led by LI Jiayang from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology, developed a multiplex gene editing tool named the Cas9-PE system, capable of simultaneously achieving precise editing and site-specific random mutagenesis in rice.
In a breakthrough study published in Science on Nov. 15, international researchers have identified mechanisms driving age-dependent morphological changes occurring in the root apical meristem during phase change.
A group of researchers from Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) has been investigating the interactions between root-zone microorganisms and plant root exudates, and how these microorganisms in turn influenced plant health and growth. Their recent attention to the aerial root mucilagestudy has led to a novel model for studying the crucial interactions between functional metabolites and the probiotic microbiome, based on the aerial root mucilage probiotics system.
