Two New Species of Genus Ormosia Discovered in Guangdong

"Red berries grow in southern land, how many spring branches hold?" The red beans described by WANG Wei (701–761) in his poem have evoked the longing of the Chinese people for thousands of years. Today, right in the "southern land" mentioned in the poem—the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area—a research team has unveiled the identity of two new species of this very genus. Recently, a team l

Researchers Reconstruct Most Complete Phylogeny of Androsace

The genus Androsace is widely distributed across the temperate regions of the Northern Hemisphere, with notable diversity in the Alps and the Hengduan–Himalaya regions. Previous phylogenetic studies have advanced the understanding of Androsace 's evolutionary history, but its biogeographic origins and diversification history remain unresolved due to limited species sampling and low statistical sup

Soybean Roots, Leaves Adopt Distinct Metabolic Responses to Heat, Nitrogen Stress

A new study has recently revealed how soybean roots and leaves employ distinct metabolic strategies under nitrogen deficiency and high-temperature stress, which may help guide the development of soybean varieties with enhanced heat tolerance and improved nitrogen-use efficiency.

Nanobubble Chemistry Enables Catalyst‑Free Ammonia Synthesis Under Mild Conditions

Ammonia is a cornerstone of global agriculture and a promising carrier for renewable energy storage. Yet nearly all of it is still produced via the Haber‑Bosch process, which operates above 400 °C and 200 atm, consumes about two percent of global energy, and emits large amounts of carbon dioxide. That is why finding a greener route under mild conditions has become a major challenge in chemistry an

Study: Forest Trees Do Little to Acclimate to Prolonged Drought

Forests support much of the world's biodiversity and play a vital role in regulating Earth's climate, but they are increasingly exposed to drought. To understand the potential consequences of drought, a key question is whether trees can acclimate to prolonged water stress by altering their physiology. Many p revious attempts to answer this question have relied on evidence from potted plants or nat

Fossil Pollen Reveals Rapid Rise of Gangdese Mountains Around 15 Million Years Ago

Understanding the uplift history of the Tibetan Plateau is key to grasping the geodynamic processes that formed the "Roof of the World," as well as its far-reaching impacts on regional and global climate and the evolution of Asian biodiversity. The Gangdese Mountains, which run along the southern margin of the Lhasa terrane, are central to this story and among the many topographic features of the

Integrated System Developed for Simultaneous Measurement of Aerosol Absorption and Scattering

Atmospheric aerosols absorb and scatter solar radiation, influencing atmospheric radiative processes and environmental changes. Accurate measurements of these optical properties are essential for understanding aerosol effects on climate and air quality. However, conventional instruments often rely on separate sampling lines and measurement cells, which may introduce particle losses and differences

Low Temperature Graphene Growth Opens a Route to Sustainable Resource Recycling

Graphene is an exceptionally useful material for creating batteries, catalysts, and electronic devices. Yet producing graphene typically requires temperatures as high as 900°C, limiting energy efficiency and making structural control difficult. To make graphene production more practical, a recent study has overcome this long-standing temperature barrier. In a study published in the Journal of the

Green Hydrogen Production and Storage Using Alcohols, Iron, and Baker's Yeast

Hydrogen gas (H₂) is widely regarded as a promising clean energy source. By weight, it stores nearly three times more energy than gasoline, and its use does not directly release carbon dioxide (CO₂). Yet most H₂ is still produced from fossil fuels through CO₂-intensive processes. Storing and transporting this energy-rich gas are also costly and technically challenging. Therefore, developing sustai
