Net carbon emission accounts, drivers, and mitigation measures in China, 1980–2020

Mitigating net CO 2 emissions under socioeconomic development and climate variability is essential for climate action and sustainable development goals. Here, focusing on anthropogenic emissions and terrestrial ecosystem sinks, we construct a national-scale account of China's net...

Valorization of Grifola frondosa processing by‐products: purification, structural characterization, and anti‐ EV71 bioactivity of a novel low‐molecular‐weight polysaccharide‐peptide

Abstract BACKGROUND The large volume of supernatant generated during Grifola frondosa extraction is typically discarded, resulting in substantial resource waste and environmental pressure. Such agro‐fungal processing by‐products are rich in potentially bioactive macromolecules, b...

Do Agricultural Machinery Services Promote Grain-Oriented Land Use? The Countervailing Role of Farmland Rent in Rural China

Rural labor out-migration and low comparative returns to grain challenge food security in China. This study examines the association between agricultural machinery services (AMS) and the allocation of sown land between grain and economic crops, and whether farmland rent is linked...

Risk-coupling assessment system to improve the safety of urban subway construction

Purpose This study develops and evaluates a dynamic risk-coupling assessment system for urban subway construction that identifies how human, equipment, environmental, and management risks interact over time and supports stage-specific risk control. Design/methodology/approach Ris...

Interfacial Water‐Regulated High‐Entropy Intermetallic Catalysts for Selective Ethylene Glycol Upgrading and Self‐Powered Hydrogen Production

ABSTRACT Selective electrochemical upgrading of ethylene glycol (EG) to glycolic acid (GA) coupled with hydrogen evolution provides a promising pathway for chemical‐energy co‐production, yet remains challenged by CO poisoning, excessive C‐C bond cleavage, and uncontrolled oxygena...

Phosphorus Addition Enhances Ecosystem Multifunctionality While Reshaping Multi-Trophic Biodiversity–Function Relationships in a Tropical Cloud Forest

Background: Phosphorus (P) availability regulates tropical forest functioning, yet how P enrichment reshapes biodiversity–ecosystem multifunctionality (EMF) relationships remains poorly understood, especially in tropical cloud forests (TCFs), where rising nutrient inputs may shif...

Genotypic Distribution, Resistance Effects, and Breeding Implications of Rice Blast Resistance Genes in 120 Cultivars Released Over the Past Five Decades

Abstract Rice blast, caused by Magnaporthe oryzae , is a destructive disease worldwide. Deployment of broad-spectrum resistance ( R ) genes is an effective strategy for sustainable disease control, but the actual resistance effects of individual genes and their combinations in co...

Transcriptomic and Proteomic Insights into Low Red Light: Far-Red Light Ratios Induced Internode Elongation in Cucumber Seedlings

The ratio of red to far-red (FR) light (the R/FR ratio) is a core signal regulating shade-induced internode elongation in plants, but the underlying mechanism in cucumber remains not fully elucidated. Therefore, in the present study, cucumber (Cucumis sativus L. ‘Zhongnong No. 26...

Combined Residues of Frequently Detected Herbicides are Stronger Predictors of Soil Resistome and Virulence Potential than Single Residues

Abstract Overuse of herbicides has resulted in a global epidemic of evolved resistance in soil ecosystems. While single herbicide risk has been documented, the impact of multiple herbicide residues on the soil resistomes remains poorly understood. Our study quantified the residue...

Visual and Equipment-Minimized Detection of Avian Metapneumovirus Subtype C by RT-RPA-CRISPR/Cas12a Coupled with Lateral Flow Dipstick

Avian metapneumovirus (aMPV) is the main etiological agent of turkey rhinotracheitis, causing respiratory distress and economic losses in turkeys. While its impact in broilers and laying hens is relatively limited, aMPV subtype C (aMPV/C) is an important pathogen in ducks and wat...

Spatiotemporal Variations, Trade-Offs and Synergies, and Socio-Ecological Driving Factors of Ecosystem Services in the Poyang Lake Basin: Implications for Differentiated Ecological Management

Due to the combined effects of climate change and intensified human activities, large lake basins are often at risk of severe degradation of ecosystem services (ESs). To develop scientifically rigorous and effective strategies for managing ESs, this study focuses on the Poyang La...

Migrant Children, Human Capital Investment, and Migrant Household Economic Outcomes: Evidence from China

This study examines whether a joint parent-child migration arrangement is associated with migrant household economic performance in China. The exposure identifies households in which a school-age child lives or studies outside the hukou county with at least one employment-migrant...

Impact of High-Density Urban Environment on Residents’ Heat Risk: Evidence from Shenzhen, China

This study explores the nonlinear effects of urban environmental factors on heat risk in Shenzhen, a typical high-density megacity. We established a multidimensional indicator system covering the built environment (building density, road density), ecological conditions (Enhanced...

Marine arsenate evolution during Proterozoic oxygenation events and implications for biological phosphate metabolism

Abstract Earth’s atmosphere and oceans experienced two major episodes of ocean-atmosphere oxygenation that transformed the planet and shaped the evolution of the oxygen-rich biosphere between 2.45 and 0.541 billion years ago (Ga). These changes increased the abundance of oxidized...

Birds of a feather? Local gambling preferences and corporate debt maturity in China

Although debt maturity is central to firms’ operations, how informal institutions such as local gambling preferences shape it remains unclear. Using a sample of A-share listed firms from 2008 to 2023, this paper explores whether and how local gambling preferences shape corporate...

Effects of Relative Humidity on the Development, Survival, and Reproduction of Paralipsa gularis (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae), a Pest of Stored Grains and Maize

Paralipsa gularis (Zeller) (Lepidoptera: Pyralidae) is a storage pest native to Southeast Asia that has now become a major agricultural pest affecting maize during the late growth stage in the border regions of southern Yunnan, China, adjacent to Southeast Asia. The typical tropi...

OsRVE1 and OsRVE2 Promote Salinity Tolerance in Rice by Directly Activating OsSAPK5 and Modulating ABA Signalling

ABSTRACT Soil salinity severely limits rice productivity, yet the transcriptional mechanisms connecting salt stress with abscisic acid (ABA) signalling remain incompletely understood. Here, we identify the MYB‐related transcription factors OsRVE1 and OsRVE2 as positive regulators...

Effects of High Hydrostatic Pressure Processing on Potential Allergenicity and Quality of Tropomyosin in Pre-Prepared Crab Products (Portunus trituberculatus)

This study investigated the effects of high hydrostatic pressure (HHP; 200 MPa for 5–15 min) on tropomyosin (TM) immunoreactivity, in vitro digestive stability, and selected quality attributes of crab cakes prepared from Portunus trituberculatus. Western blotting and competitive...

A conserved miR ‐281‐x is associated with self‐grooming behaviour in Apis cerana

Self-grooming behaviour is a crucial adaptation in honey bees for maintaining individual hygiene and combating parasite infestations. The miRNA-mediated influence on self-grooming behaviour has been recently demonstrated in Apis mellifera but remains largely unexplored in Apis ce...
