A Chinese research team from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences recently identified key genes used to control pre-harvest sprouting of rice and wheat, which will effectively reduce the agriculture loss and ensure China's food security.

Chinese scientists have completed the life-cycle growth experiments of rice and Arabidopsis in the Chinese space station and successfully obtained their seeds, said the Chinese Academy of Sciences (CAS) on Monday.

Chinese astronauts onboard the Shenzhou XIV spacecraft have returned with the world's first rice seeds produced in orbit, a feat that allows scientists to probe the effects of microgravity on rice growth and find a sustainable food source for long-term space explorations.

China's deep space exploration laboratory, which started operation in June this year, is recruiting top talents from around the world, according to the China National Space Administration (CNSA) on Monday.

The Arabidopsis thaliana plant boarding on China's Shenzhou-15 manned spaceship has begun growing. The Shenzhou-15 spaceship was launched at 11:08 p.m. on Nov. 29, 2022. About 20 hours later, Chinese astronauts placed the Arabidopsis thaliana in a biological incubator in the life and ecological experiment cabinet inside the Wentian lab module of China's space station.

A group of Chinese scientists created a dense, ultracold gas of triple-atomic molecules, making an experimental milestone that offers multiple research opportunities for quantum chemistry.

Chinese scientists will push the frontier of basic sciences and create new innovations to help the world achieve its sustainable development goals.

New Zealand Marine biologist Dr. Kareen Schnabel from the National Institute of Water and Atmospheric Research (NIWA) on Sunday used "incredible" many times to describe her unique experience with her Chinese counterparts and Human Occupied Vehicle (HOV) Fendouzhe after their expedition to one of the deepest regions in the ocean.

An international group led by scientists at the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences found that the average daily water intake of a man in his twenties should be 1.5 to 1.8 liters, while it should be 1.3 to 1.4 liters for a female in the same age group.

A remotely operated underwater vehicle (ROV), carried by the Chinese scientific research vessel Exploration-2, has been tested with a maximum working depth of 4,308 meters in the South China Sea, the Institute of Deep-sea Science and Engineering (IDSSE) under the Chinese Academy of Sciences said on Thursday.

The 4th World Science and Technology Development Forum opened Sunday in Chengdu, the capital of southwest China's Sichuan Province. The event is jointly hosted by the China Association for Science and Technology, the Chinese Academy of Sciences, the Chinese Academy of Engineering, and the Sichuan provincial government.

Chinese scientists have been working to explore technological possibilities to reduce greenhouse gases. In some recent moves, they have designed the flow battery for better energy storage, proposed a new eco-friendly cooling strategy and tried to utilize microalgae to capture the carbon.
