Biochar addition drives soil aggregation and carbon sequestration in aggregate fractions from an intensive agricultural system
Biochar application is deemed to modify soil properties, but current research has been mostly conducted on the degraded land in tropical regions. Using six consecutive years of biochar field trial, we investig...

Investigation on an ultra-compact Mach–Zehnder interferometer electro-optic switch using poled-polymer/silicon slot waveguide
By using poled-polymer/silicon slot waveguides in the active region and employing the Pockels effect of the poled-polymer, we propose a kind of Mach–Zehnder interferometer (MZI) electro-optic (EO) switch opera...

High-level Expression of Basic Fibroblast Growth Factor in Transgenic Soybean Seeds and Characterization of its Biological Activity
The glycinin G1 gene encodes a soybean seed storage protein accumulating at a high level. We have used the G1 promoter to confer seed-specific expression of human basic fibroblast growth factor (bFGF) in transgen...
