Open AccessConfined Cu-OH single sites in SSZ-13 zeolite for the direct oxidation of methane to methanol
The direct oxidation of methane to methanol (MTM) remains a significant challenge in heterogeneous catalysis due to the high dissociation energy of the C-H bond in methane and the high desorption energy of met...

BPB1 regulates rice (Oryza sative L.) panicle length and panicle branch development by promoting lignin and inhibiting cellulose accumulation
Panicle structure is one of the most important agronomic traits directly related to rice yield. This study identified a rice mutant basal primary branch 1 (bpb1), which exhibited a phenotype of reduced panicle le...

Open AccessDirect conversion of methane to formaldehyde and CO on B2O3 catalysts
Direct oxidation of methane to value-added C1 chemicals (e.g. HCHO and CO) provides a promising way to utilize natural gas sources under relatively mild conditions. Such conversions remain, however, a key selecti...
