Recently, a research team led by Prof. Kong Xiangfeng from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has revealed that modulating gut microbiota offers an approach to improve commercial pork quality—potentially bridging the gap between the high meat yield of commercial pigs and the premium meat quality of Chinese indigenous pigs.
In a new study published in Nature Communication, a team led by Prof. Mao Donghai from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture of Chinese Academy of Sciences elucidated the molecular mechanism by which the auxin efflux transporter HAN2/OsABCB5 regulates chilling tolerance in rice through the auxin signaling pathway.
High-quality pork products have become a key goal for swine industry. Intramuscular fat content and muscle fiber type composition are critical factors influencing meat quality. As important metabolic and secretory organs, muscle and adipose tissues interact with each other, and exosomes, as mediators of intercellular communication, have become a major focus of research. Recently, a research team led by Academician Yulong Yin, was invited to publish a cutting-edge review entitled "Intracellular and intercellular crosstalk between exosomes and autophagy" in the international journal The Innovation Life, where it was also selected as the cover.
As an ideal model for human intestinal research, the pig, whose intestinal anatomy, enzyme system development and nutritional metabolism characteristics are very similar to those of infants and young children, has been widely used in recent years to evaluate infant formula and milk protein function research.
Recently, a research team led by Prof. Kong Xiangfeng from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has revealed the mechanisms of dietary Chinese herbal formula ultra-fine powder (CHFUP) for improving egg and meat quality of aged laying hens.
ssociate Prof. Yan Qiongxian and Prof.Tan Zhiliang visited Suranaree University of Technology (SUT), located in Nakhon Ratchasima Province, Thailand, and held in-depth discussions with international cooperation partner Dr. Pramote Paengkoum's research team during August 20 to 22.
