Academic Background Photosynthetic microorganisms can directly convert carbon dioxide (CO₂) into high value-added long-chain chemicals by converting solar energy into chemical energy, providing a promising route for CO₂ sequestration and sustainable development. However, the key reducing power generated in photosynthetic reactions—nicotinamide aden...

Academic Background With the increasing severity of global clean water shortages, research on drinking water purification technologies has become particularly important. In drinking water treatment processes, chlorination and chlorine dioxide disinfection are commonly used methods. Although they effectively kill bacteria and viruses, they also prod...

Academic Background Rice (Oryza sativa L.) is a globally important food crop, providing a primary source of calories for approximately one-fifth of the world’s population. However, rice production faces various biotic and abiotic stresses, leading to reduced yields. Among these, rice brown leaf spot disease, caused by the fungal pathogen Cochliobol...

Academic Background Industrial hemp (Cannabis sativa L.) holds significant value in the pharmaceutical and industrial sectors due to its rich secondary metabolites, such as cannabinoids, terpenoids, and flavonoids. Cannabinoids, including tetrahydrocannabinol (THC) and cannabidiol (CBD), exhibit notable pharmacological activities, with THC being ps...

Academic Background With the rapid growth of the global population, which is expected to reach 9.7 billion by 2050, food security has become an increasingly pressing issue. Agricultural productivity is affected by various factors, with pest damage to crops being particularly severe. The tobacco cutworm (Spodoptera litura), a polyphagous pest widely...
