Stomata are plant-specific epidermal structures that consist of paired guard cells surrounding a pore. The opening and closing of these micro-valves facilitate carbon dioxide uptake for photosynthesis and reduce excessive water loss in plants. Recently, a research group led by Prof. LE Jie at Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, finds a genetic suppressor of flp stomatal d...

Diatoms stem from red algae and account up to 40% of the net primary production in the ocean. The high photosynthesis capacity of diatoms are contributed largely by their light-harvesting antenna proteins, which are fucoxanthin (Fx) chlorophyll (Chl) a/c-binding proteins (FCPs) that can efficiently absorb blue-green light available underwater and also have strong nonphotochemical quenching...

Temperature sensitivity of soil organic matter decomposition, commonly referred to as Q10, is a key parameter in terrestrial carbon cycle. It quantifies the increase in decomposition rate with a 10 oC rise in temperature and could determine the sign and magnitude of terrestrial carbon-climate feedback. The regulatory mechanisms of the temperature sensitivity of soil organic matter deco...
