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.
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.
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.
Early development of an embryo is solely supported by maternally deposited RNAs and proteins until its own genome is activated through a process called zygotic genome activation (ZGA). Recent research by Chinese scientists has revealed novel molecular mechanisms by which HIRA acts in concert with dPCIF1 to establish a totipotent chromatin and facilitate orderly zygotic genome activation in the early embryos of Drosophila.
