WU Xin's research team from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture has systematically studied the feeding effects of dietary nucleotides in sows and discussed its mechanism of placental transport, nutrient metabolism, intestinal development, and other aspects.

Researchers from the Qingdao Institute of Bioenergy and Bioprocess Technology have directly identified carbon-dioxide-fixing cells from seawater and used a Raman-spectroscopy technique to determine that their sample contains functioning genes for light harvesting, suggesting that the bacteria do engage in photosynthesis.

A joint research team from the Shenzhen Institute of Advanced Technology and the University of Texas at Austin has proposed a new strategy that can achieve targeted treatment of rheumatoid arthritis.

In a recent study, researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) and their international collaborators evaluated the role of protected areas on the protection of Asian elephants and their habitats in the Sundaic region.

Recently, a research group led by Prof. ZHANG Yibing from the Institute of Hydrobiology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences identified a crucian carp (C.auratus)-specific fish novel tripartite motif (finTRIM) gene, termed finTRIM C.auratus 1 (FTRCA1), as an RNA-binding E3 ligase from virally-infected cultured cells.

A research group led by Prof. DENG Hongyu from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences demonstrated the formation of cytoplasmic virion assembly compartments (cVACs) which recruit viral tegument proteins and host vesicles containing viral glycoproteins for virus maturation during γ-herpesvirus infection.

To understand the evolutionary relations of Verbascum species and other species in order Lamiales. Researchers from the Wuhan Botanical Garden analyzed the complete chloroplast (cp) genomes of the eight samples of Verbascum.

In a recent study, researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden and their collaborators have investigated the rainfall interception mechanisms of the canopy and the underlying reduction in kinetic energy. They also tried to identify the most advantageous intercropping species that can reduce the kinetic energy of throughfall.

Recently, a study published in Nature Communications and by Dr. LI Xinjian's group from the Institute of Biophysics of the Chinese Academy of Sciences reported that ATF4-dependent fructolysis fuels growth of glioblastoma multiforme.

Researchers led by Dr. WU Qingfeng from Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology have illustrated three distinct strategies deployed by neural progenitors to produce diverse neuronal subtypes, which provides deep insights into the mechanisms of generating neuronal diversity.

A research team led by Prof. ZHOU Jianmin from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology found that microbial patterns rapidly induce the nuclear accumulation of extra-large G protein 2, which requires its nuclear-localization signal motif and phosphorylation sites of extra-large G protein 2. They showed that the nuclear localization of extra-large G protein 2 plays an important role in plant resistance to bacterial pathogens.

In a recent study, a research group led by Prof. ZHOU Jianmin from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology and their collaborators has illustrated a redox relay with peroxiredoxin B as a sensor for H2O2 and abscisic acid insensitive 2 (ABI2) as a target protein that mediated reactive oxygen species signaling during plant immunity.
