The leaves of contain various active compunds and nutritional components, and have successively been included as raw materials in the , the , and the . Core collections of had been constructed from the conserved germplasm resources basing on molecular markers and morphological traits, however, the metabolite diversity and variation in this core population were little understood. Metabolite profiles of leaves of 193 core collections were comprehensively characterized by GC-MS and LC-MS/MS based non-targeted metabolomics in present study.

- Eucommia ulmoides, a deciduous tree known as a "living fossil," has uncertain genetic diversity and population structure, prompting a study to investigate these factors through genome re-sequencing of 12 accessions from various climatic regions in China.
- The analysis revealed that E. ulmoides accessions clustered into four different groups based on geographical locations, with samples from Hunan and Shanghai showing unexpected close genetic relationships and higher genetic diversity compared to those from other areas.
- The research also identified significant genetic differentiation between groups based on geographic classification and highlighted nine genes related to biological regulation processes and Eu-rubber biosynthesis through selective sweep analyses.
Article Synopsis
- The study focuses on the 2',3'-cycling ribonuclease (RNase) T2 gene family, which are important for RNA cleavage in plants and have been conserved across eukaryotes.
- Researchers identified 21 EURNS genes in the plant Eucommia ulmoides and analyzed their structure, evolutionary relationships, and expression patterns in different tissues.
- Findings showed that EURNS proteins vary in size and molecular weight, have specific conserved motifs, and exhibit tissue-specific expression, with segment duplication being the primary mode of gene duplication in this family.
Article Synopsis
- Pyrrole (Py) agglomerates during polymerization, impacting its effectiveness, but polypyrrole/monodispersed latex sphere (PPy/MLS) composites were developed to improve the adsorption of hexavalent chromium (Cr(VI)).
- The specific surface area of PPy/MLS was significantly enhanced (39.30 m/g) compared to PPy (24.82 m/g), providing more effective sites for adsorption.
- Testing revealed that PPy/MLS had a maximum Cr(VI) adsorption capacity of 343.64 mg/g at pH 2.0, showed over 99% removal rate after three cycles, and adhered to quasi-second-order kinetics and Langmuir model, indicating it is a
