Forests are the largest carbon sinks among terrestrial ecosystems, mainly sequestrate carbon through tree growth, playing an important role in mitigating climate change. A recent study in Nature has found that the reduction of carbon sinks in Amazon forests is caused by drought-induced tree morta...

The establishment of forest plantations is an excellent silvicultural alternative to improve atmospheric carbon (C) sequestration for climate change mitigation. In recent years, the importance of forest growth and C dynamics at different stand ages have drawn huge attention for investigation. Cas...

　　Banana is one of the most important crops of the world. The demand for cultivated bananas continues to grow; however, their production is greatly affected by a complex of biotic and abiotic stresses. For instance, banana yields are severely threatened by the disease fusarium wilt, which is c...

The timing of floral induction is tightly controlled by environmental cues and intrinsic signals. The critical role of gibberellin (GA) in this process has been extensively studied in the past decades. DELLA proteins serve as the central regulatory hubs of GA signaling. The mechanism of GA-depend...

　　In recent decades, nitrogen deposition has exerted a substantial impact on biogeochemical cycles of terrestrial ecosystems across the globe. While phosphorus is a vital macronutrient necessary for all organisms, it assumes a crucial role in physiological processes associated with protein and...
