A research team has identified a key gene, CsCHLI, that plays a central role in chlorophyll biosynthesis and leaf coloration in tea plants.

A research team has developed a powerful two-stage screening pipeline that integrates hyperspectral imaging and metabolomic profiling to rapidly and accurately identify salt-tolerant crop mutants before visible symptoms appear.

A research team developed a drone-based, semi-supervised learning pipeline that detects both maize seedlings and missing plants at early growth stages.

Recently, a research team led by Professor Caifu Jiang from China Agricultural University published a study titled "The ZmMPK3-ZmGRF1 module promotes maize growth by enhancing cell proliferation under salt stress" in Science Bulletin. This study shows that the ZmMPK3-ZmGRF1 module facilitates maize growth under salt stress through enhanced cell proliferation, providing new insights into how MPK signaling pathways and GRF growth regulators govern plant responses to saline environments. Furthermore, these findings offer valuable genetic resources for developing salt-tolerant maize varieties.
