A new study led by Prof. ZHANG Yongqing from the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Prof. HAN Shihui from Peking University revealed that Beagle dogs carrying mutations in the Shank3 gene exhibit face processing abnormalities similar to those observed in human ASD patients.
A research team led by Prof. LI Jiatang from the Chengdu Institute of Biology of the Chinese Academy of Sciences has assembled a high-quality, chromosome-level genome and partitioned it into three distinct subgenomes. This study reveals the unique triploid parthenogenetic reproductive mechanism of the flowerpot snake and sheds new light on the evolution of polyploidy in vertebrates.
A new study led by Prof. XU Cao’s team at the Institute of Genetics and Developmental Biology has shed light on an adaptive strategy that may be pivotal in developing heat-resilient crop varieties amid escalating climate change.
A team of researchers from Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden and Kunming Institute of Botany has identified a new species of flowering plant, Phlogacanthus xanthophyllus, in the limestone forests of southeastern Yunnan.
A research team led by Prof. ZHAN Cheng from the University of Science and Technology of China (USTC), and Chief Physician ZHU Xiaoyu from the First Affiliated Hospital of USTC has identified how stem cell infusion timing affects the incidence and severity of aGVHD in allo-HSCT, highlighting the role of the recipient’s circadian rhythms.
A collaborative research team from the Kunming Institute of Botany of the Chinese Academy of Sciences and Lanzhou University has uncovered new genetic and ecological mechanisms underlying plant camouflage. Their findings reveal how herbivore pressure drives the evolution of leaf coloration in alpine Corydalis species.
