Genome-Wide Characterization of the PEBP Gene Family in Chinese Plum (Prunus salicina Lindl.) and Expression Profiling During Floral Bud Development and Flowering

The phosphatidylethanolamine-binding protein (PEBP) family plays a crucial role in regulating flowering and other developmental processes, yet it remains insufficiently characterized in Chinese plum (Prunus salicina Lindl.). A comprehensive genome-wide analysis identified seven c...

Discrimination of the weathering degree of speleothems based on hyperspectral characteristics

Abstract Accurate and non-destructive identification of the weathering degree of speleothems in tourist caves holds critical implications for establishing scientific conservation criteria. To address the limitations inherent in conventional rock weathering classification systems,...

Conservation gaps, taxon-specific mechanisms, and synergistic benefits of amphibian-centered planning in a karst biodiversity hotspot

Habitat loss, climate change, and disease are driving global amphibian declines, making amphibians valuable indicators for conservation assessment. We integrated field surveys (2013–2025) covering 120 amphibian species in Guizhou, a karst biodiversity hotspot, with species distri...

SGO-DN-AF model for evaluating industry–academia collaboration in talent development

Abstract Background Effective industry-academia collaboration (IAC) is critical for developing industry-ready talent in the age of digital transformation. Traditional assessment approaches for IAC frequently rely on linear or subjective analysis, which fails to reflect the multid...
