Dominant Diatom Thrives via Partnership with Bacteria in China's Major Water Project

Scientists have recently found that a long‑term dominant diatom in China's South-to-North Water Diversion Project maintains its edge through a mutually reinforced cycle with bacteria , whereas a short‑term dominant species lacks such a close partnership and is far less resilient . The study, led by researchers from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, was publish

Carla Rothlin: Taking immunology to the next level while leveling the learning field

The human body is a marvel of remake and renewal. We regularly replace some of our estimated 37 trillion cells – about 300 billion or 1 percent of our cells each day - with healthy substitutes. We remove damaged or aging, senescent cells and cellular debris from our organs and tissues every second of the day. How important is it that cellular waste be properly removed?

Tropical Forest Restoration Enhances Soil Carbon Storage Through Microbial Activity

Soil organic carbon dynamics are a key indicator for assessing the success of ecosystem restoration. According to a new study by researchers from the Xishuangbanna Tropical Botanical Garden (XTBG) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, soil microorganisms play a critical role in regulating carbon storage in tropical ecosystems undergoing recovery. The study, published in Catena on August 27, showed t
