The rubber tree, Hevea brasiliensis, produces natural rubber that serves as an essential
industrial raw material. Here, we present a high-quality reference genome for a rubber tree …

Genome size variation and evolutionary forces behind have been long pursued in flowering
plants. The genus Oryza, consisting of approximately 25 wild species and two cultivated rice…

Asian cultivated rice is believed to have been domesticated from a wild progenitor, Oryza
rufipogon, offering promising sources of alleles for world rice improvement. Here we first …

Mango (Mangifera indica), a member of the family Anacardiaceae, is one of the world’s most
popular tropical fruits. Here we sequenced the variety, “Hong Xiang Ya”, and generated a …

Background Biologists have long debated the drivers of the genome size evolution and
variation ever since Darwin. Assumptions for the adaptive or maladaptive consequences of the …

AP2/ERF transcription factor family plays an important role in plant development and stress
responses. Previous studies have shed light on the evolutionary trajectory of the AP2 and …

Hot carrier harvest could save 30% energy loss in solar cells. So far, however, it is still
unreachable as the photoexcited hot carriers are short-lived, ∼1 ps, determined by a rapid …

In-sensor processing has the potential to reduce the energy consumption and hardware
complexity of motion detection and recognition. However, the state-of-the-art all-in-one array …

Blackbody-sensitive room-temperature infrared detection is a notable development direction
for future low-dimensional infrared photodetectors. However, because of the limitations of …

The paper develops a control scheme for a hybrid energy system, including a photovoltaic (PV)
panel and a battery energy storage (BES) system. The capital cost of PV systems is …
