Mountain systems harbor a substantial fraction of global biodiversity and provide excellent opportunities to study rapid diversification and to understand the historical processes underlying the assembly of biodiversity hotspots. The rich biodiversity in mountains is widely regarded as having arisen under the influence of geological and cli... -

Ow ’ s group tried to.In the absence of stress , the OXS3s interact with AFP1 to repress the ABI4 promoter and decrease γ - H2A . X.Model of ABI4 regulation by...Read More
Previously, Dr. David W. Ow’ s group in South China Botanical Garden found that overexpression of Arabidopsis OXS3 (OXIDATIVE STRESS 3) or OXS3-like cDNAs in Schizosaccharomyces pombe enhances tolerance to heavy metals or oxidizing chemicals, and they speculated that the OXS proteins could play crucial roles in stress tolerance in plants. ... -
2021-07-23Legacy effect of land-use history declines the stability of soil organic carbonAnd subtropical forests plays a key role in mitigating global climate change .Postdoctoral Science Foundation . For further reading , please refer to : https : / / doi . org / 10.1016 / j . jenvman . 2021.113142. Soil organic carbon (SOC) sequestration in tropical and subtropical forests plays a key role in mitigating global climate change. The impact of human activities on soil carbon sink potential in the tropics has aroused wide concerns at global scale. However, it is still unclear how the legacy effect of land-use history affects SOC stability.Read More
