Hybridization has long been recognized as a fundamental evolutionary process in plants
but, until recently, our understanding of its phylogenetic distribution and biological …

Atomically-precise noble metal nanoclusters have raised nanomaterials research to new
heights by merit of their distinct structural, optical and electronic properties, which can be …

Radiations are especially important for generating species biodiversity in mountainous
ecosystems. The contribution of hybridization to such radiations has rarely been examined …

Studies of plants have been instrumental for revealing how new species originate. For
several decades, botanical research has complemented and, in some cases, challenged …

Catalysis plays a crucial role in all the major applications and challenges in the
environment, including energy generation and environmental remediation. Although …

Sunflowers of the genus Helianthus are models for hybridization research and contain three
of the best-studied examples of homoploid hybrid speciation. To understand a broader …

Butylphthalide is one of the first-line drugs for ischemic stroke therapy, while no biosynthetic
enzyme for butylphthalide has been reported. Here, we present a haplotype-resolved …

The measurement of a wave function plays a pivotal role in quantum physics and presents a
distinctive challenge in experiment. Recent works have shown that both the real and …

Plant genome sequences catalogue genes and the genetic elements that regulate their
expression. Such inventories further research aims as diverse as mapping the molecular …

Hybridization is widespread and constitutes an important source of genetic variability and
evolution. In animals, its role in generating novel and independent lineages (hybrid …
