Researchers in China and Australia generated the first extraordinary aromatic tomato plants by simultaneously mutating both SlBADH1 and SlBADH2 genes in tomato varieties using CRISPR/Cas9.

A research team led by Dr. Yun-Jo Lee at the Korea Research Institute of Chemical Technology (KRICT), in collaboration with EN2CORE Technology Co., Ltd., has successfully demonstrated an integrated process that converts landfill gas generated from organic waste—such as food waste—into aviation fuel.

Researchers discovered hybrid combinations capable of overcoming hybrid lethality and producing numerous offspring using tobacco.

Engineering multifunctional extracellular vesicles that can selectively and effectively kill lung cancer cells with minimal off‑target toxicity, offers a promising platform for next‑generation, precision‑guided cancer therapeutics.

The research team of Xumu Zhang and Genqiang Chen at Southern University of Science and Technology has achieved a new breakthrough in the synthesis and application of benzoxoxetine ligands. They efficiently and modularly constructed benzoxoxetine ligands through a tandem nucleophilic addition S_NAr reaction. The related findings, titled "Redox-Free and Modular Access to Oxacyclic Phosphines Enabled by a Robust Ambiphilic Phosphine Reagent," were recently published as an open access Reserach Article in CCS Chemistry.

Precocial animals, the ones that move autonomously within hours after hatching or birth, have many biases they are born with that help them survive, finds a new Royal Society paper led by Queen Mary University of London. The new model proposed by the researchers suggest that naïve animals like newborn turtles and chicks are not blank slates but are supported by the presence of multiple biases that interact.
