A research team led by Prof. Tan Zhiliang from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has systematically confirmed the phenomenon of impaired intestinal starch digestion in ruminants, and have identified the low expression of Cholecystokinin B Receptor (CCKBR) in the Acinar Cells is associated with insufficient starch hydrolysis in ruminants.
Aquaculture wastewater is typically laden with organic matter, nitrogen, phosphorus, and other nutrients. Discharging untreated wastewater can exacerbate eutrophication in surrounding water bodies, disrupting ecological balance and degrading water quality.
A new study led by Prof. Tan Zhiliang from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has unveiled intricate coordination mechanisms between ruminal mucosal microbiota and host epithelial cells across developmental phases. This study, published in SCIENCE CHINA-Life Sciences on February 11, could pave the way for increasing livestock survival and productivity through targeted microbiome stewardship during critical windows. Wu Jian serves as the first author of this paper, while Jiao Jinzhen and Zhou Chuanshe are the corresponding authors.
A research team led by Prof. Tan Zhiliang from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture, Chinese Academy of Sciences, has uncovered the microbial mechanisms underlying the low methane emission trait in the hindgut of ruminants. Their groundbreaking study, titled “Reductive acetogenesis is a dominant process in the ruminant hindgut” was recently published in the prestigious microbiology journal Microbiome on January 28.
A researcher team led by Prof. WANG Kelin from the Institute of Subtropical Agriculture of the Chinese Academy of Sciences conducted a regional scale sampling in a karst region in southern China. Recently, they have revealed how intensive agriculture affects the complexity and stability of soil biota networks, and how these effects are linked to soil functions. Their study was published in Global Change Biology on January 22.
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.
