| 1 | The Sunway TaihuLight supercomputer: system and applications显示文摘The Sunway Taihu Light supercomputer is the world's first system with a peak performance greater than 100 PFlops. In this paper, we provide a detailed introduction to the Taihu Light system. In contrast with other existing heterogeneous supercomputers, which include both CPU processors and PCIe-connected many-core accelerators(NVIDIA GPU or Intel Xeon Phi), the computing power of Taihu Light is provided by a homegrown many-core SW26010 CPU that includes both the management processing elements(MPEs)and computing processing elements(CPEs) in one chip. With 260 processing elements in one CPU, a single SW26010 provides a peak performance of over three TFlops. To alleviate the memory bandwidth bottleneck in most applications, each CPE comes with a scratch pad memory, which serves as a user-controlled cache. To support the parallelization of programs on the new many-core architecture, in addition to the basic C/C++and Fortran compilers, the system provides a customized Sunway Open ACC tool that supports the Open ACC2.0 syntax. This paper also reports our preliminary efforts on developing and optimizing applications on the Taihu Light system, focusing on key application domains, such as earth system modeling, ocean surface wave modeling, atomistic simulation, and phase-field simulation. | Haohuan FU Junfeng LIAO Jinzhe YANG Lanning WANG Zhenya SONG Xiaomeng HUANG Chao YANG Wei XUE Fangfang LIU Fangli QIAO Wei ZHAO Xunqiang YIN Chaofeng HOU Chenglong ZHANG Wei GE Jian ZHANG Yangang WANG Chunbo ZHOU Guangwen YANG | 2016 | Science China(Information Sciences)2016,59,7: | 45 |
| 2 | Crop 3D a LiDAR based platform for 3D high-throughput crop phenotyping显示文摘With the growing population and the reducing arable land, breeding has been considered as an effective way to solve the food crisis.As an important part in breeding, high-throughput phenotyping can accelerate the breeding process effectively. Light detection and ranging(LiDAR) is an active remote sensing technology that is capable of acquiring three-dimensional(3 D) data accurately,and has a great potential in crop phenotyping. Given that crop phenotyping based on LiDAR technology is not common in China,we developed a high-throughput crop phenotyping platform, named Crop 3 D, which integrated LiDAR sensor, high-resolution camera, thermal camera and hyperspectral imager. Compared with traditional crop phenotyping techniques, Crop 3 D can acquire multi-source phenotypic data in the whole crop growing period and extract plant height, plant width, leaf length, leaf width, leaf area, leaf inclination angle and other parameters for plant biology and genomics analysis. In this paper, we described the designs,functions and testing results of the Crop 3 D platform, and briefly discussed the potential applications and future development of the platform in phenotyping. We concluded that platforms integrating LiDAR and traditional remote sensing techniques might be the future trend of crop high-throughput phenotyping. | Qinghua Guo Fangfang Wu Shuxin Pang Xiaoqian Zhao Linhai Chen Jin Liu Baolin Xue Guangcai Xu Le Li Haichun Jing Chengcai Chu | 2018 | Science China(Life Sciences)2018,61,3: | 14 |
| 3 | Genome-wide Identification and Classification of HSF Family in Grape, and Their Transcriptional Analysis under Heat Acclimation and Heat Stress显示文摘Heat stress is one of the most serious threats in viticulture. Heat shock transcription factors(HSFs) have been proven to be the most important transcriptional factor family in the plant response to heat. In this study, a total of 19 putative HSF genes(VHSFs) were identified from the 12 × Vitis vinifera Pinot Noir PN4002 genome, and their chromosomal location, phylogenetic tree, exon-intron structure and conserved motifs were also analyzed. In addition, these HSFs transcriptional profiles in Vitis vinifera 'Jingxiu'(weak heat tolerance) and Vitis davidii 'Tangwei'(strong heat tolerance) under heat stress(47℃) and heat acclimation(38℃) were presented. Only VHSF01, VHSF05, VHSF15 and VHSF18 among 19 VHSFs showed different transcriptional models in these two genotypes under the same treatment, suggesting that these four VHSFs may be important factors which result in a thermotolerance difference between 'Jingxiu' and 'Tangwei'. This study provides novel insights into the response of 19 VHSFs to heat stress in the grape and suggests that potential key VHSFs in grape thermotolerance have great implications for molecular breeding in grapes. | LIU Guotian CHAI Fengmei WANG Yi JIANG Jinzhu DUAN Wei WANG Yuting WANG Fangfang LI Shaohua WANG Lijun | 2018 | Horticultural Plant Journal2018,4,4: | 13 |
| 4 | Practical performance and its efficiency of arsenic removal from groundwater using Fe-Mn binary oxide显示文摘A treatment unit packed by granular adsorbent of Fe-Mn binary oxide incorporated into diatomite (FMBO(1:1)-diatomite) was studied to remove arsenic from anaerobic groundwater without any pre-treatment or post-treatment. The raw anaerobic groundwater containing 35-45 μg/L of arsenic was collected from suburb of Beijing. Arsenic(III) constituted roughly 60%-80% of the total arsenic content. Approximately 7,000 bed volumes (ratio of efluent volume to adsorbent volume) treated water with arsenic concentration below 10 μg/L were produced in the operation period of four months. The regeneration of FMBO(1:1)-diatomite had been operated for 15 times. In the first stage, the regeneration process significantly improved the adsorption capacity of FMBO(1:1)-diatomite. With increased loading amount of Fe-Mn binary oxide, the adsorption capacity for arsenic decreased 20%-40%. Iron and manganese in anaerobic groundwater were oxidized and adsorptive filtrated by FMBO(1:1)-diatomite efficiently. The final concentrations of iron and manganese in efluents were nearly zero. The continued safe performance of the treatment units proved that adsorbent FMBO(1:1)-diatomite had high oxidation ability and exhibited strong adsorptive filtration. | Fangfang Chang Jiuhui Qu Ruiping Liu Xu Zhao Pengju Lei | 2010 | Journal of Environmental Sciences2010,22,1: | 11 |
| 5 | Role of pyroptosis in inflammation and cancer显示文摘Pyroptosis is a form of programmed cell death mediated by gasdermin and is a product of continuous cell expansion until the cytomembrane ruptures,resulting in the release of cellular contents that can activate strong inflammatory and immune responses.Pyroptosis,an innate immune response,can be triggered by the activation of inflammasomes by various influencing factors.Activation of these inflammasomes can induce the maturation of caspase-1 or caspase-4/5/11,both of which cleave gasdermin D to release its N-terminal domain,which can bind membrane lipids and perforate the cell membrane.Here,we review the latest advancements in research on the mechanisms of pyroptosis,newly discovered influencing factors,antitumoral properties,and applications in various diseases.Moreover,this review also provides updates on potential targeted therapies for inflammation and cancers,methods for clinical prevention,and finally challenges and future directions in the field. | Xiang Wei Feng Xie Xiaoxue Zhou Yuchen Wu Haiyan Yan Ting Liu Jun Huang Fangwei Wang Fangfang Zhou Long Zhang | 2022 | Cellular & Molecular Immunology2022,19,9: | 11 |
| 6 | Effect of Sc and Zr additions on microstructures and corrosion behavior of Al-Cu-Mg-Sc-Zr alloys显示文摘The effects of adding the alloy element Sc to Al alloys on strengthening, recrystallization and modification of the grain microstructure have been investigated. The combination of Sc and Zr alloying not only produces a remarkable synergistic effect of inhibition of recrystallization and refinement of grain size but also substantially reduce the amount of high-cost additional Sc. In this work, the microstructures and corrosion behavior of a new type of Al-Cu-Mg-Sc-Zr alloy with Sc/Zr ratio of 1/2 were investigated.The experimental results showed that the Sc and Zr additions to Al-Cu-Mg alloy could strongly inhibit recrystallization, refine grain size, impede the segregation of Cu element along the grain boundary and increase the spacing of grain boundary precipitates. In addition, adding Sc and Zr to Al-Cu-Mg alloy effectively restricts the corrosion mechanism conversion associated with Al2 Cu Mg particles, which resulted in the change of the cross-section morphology of inter-granular corrosion from an undercutting to an elliptical shape. The susceptibility to inter-granular corrosion was significantly decreased with increasing Sc and Zr additions to the Al-Cu-Mg alloy. The relationships between microstructures evolution and inter-granular corrosion mechanism of Al-Cu-Mg-Sc-Zr alloys were also discussed. | Fangfang Sun Guiru Liu Nash Qunying Li Enzuo Liu Chunnain He Chunsheng Shi Naiqin Zhao | 2017 | Journal of Materials Science & Technology2017,33,9: | 10 |

| 8 | sLe^(x) expression in invasive micropapillary breast carcinoma is associated with poor prognosis and can be combined with MUC1/EMA as a supplementary diagnostic indicator显示文摘Objective: Mucin 1(MUC1/EMA) and sialyl Lewis X(sLe^(x)) indicate polarity reversal in invasive micropapillary carcinoma(IMPC). The purpose of this study was to evaluate the expression of MUC1/EMA and sLe^(x) and to assess their diagnostic and prognostic value in patients with IMPC.Methods: The expression of sLe^(x) and MUC1/EMA in 100 patients with IMPC and a control group of 89 patients with invasive ductal carcinoma not otherwise specified(IDC-NOS) were analyzed with IHC. Fresh tumor tissues were collected from patients with IMPC or IDC-NOS for primary culture and immunofluorescence analysis.Results: The rate of nodal metastasis was higher in patients with IMPC than those with IDC-NOS, and IMPC cells tended to express more sLe^(x) and MUC1/EMA in the cytomembranes(the stroma-facing surfaces of the micropapillary clusters) than IDC-NOS cells. In IMPC, high cytomembrane expression of sLe^(x), but not MUC1/EMA, indicated poor prognosis. In addition, among the 100 patients with IMPC, 10 patients had sLe^(x)+/EMA-expression patterns, and 8 patients had sLe^(x)-/EMA+ expression patterns. The primary IMPC cells were suspended, non-adherent tumor cell clusters, whereas the primary IDC cells were adherent tumor cells. Immunofluorescence analysis showed that MUC1/EMA and sLe^(x) were co-expressed on the cytomembranes in IMPC cell clusters and in the cytoplasm in IDC-NOS cells.Conclusions: sLe^(x) can be used as a prognostic indicator and can be combined with MUC1/EMA as a complementary diagnostic indicator to avoid missed IMPC diagnosis. | Yawen Song Hui Sun Kailiang Wu Jianke Lyu Jingyue Zhang Feng Gu Yongjie Ma Beibei Shen Chijuan Wang Xiaojiao Chen Jing Xu Weidong Li Fangfang Liu Li Fu | 2021 | Cancer Biology & Medicine2021,18,2: | 7 |
| 9 | Genome-wide identification of OSCA gene family and their potential function in the regulation of dehydration and salt stress in Gossypium hirsutum显示文摘Background:Cotton(Gossypium hirsutum) provides the largest natural fiber for the textile manufacturing industries,but its production is on the decline due to the effects of salinity.Soil salt-alkalization leads to damage in cotton growth and a decrease in yields.Hyperosmolality-gated calcium-permeable channels(OSCA) have been found to be involved in the detection of extracellular changes which trigger an increase in cytosolic free calcium concentration.Hyperosmolality-induced calcium ion increases have been widely speculated to be playing a role in osmosensing in plants.However,the molecular nature of the corresponding calcium ion channels remains unclearly.In this research work,we describe the OSCA genes and their putative function in osmosensing in plants by carrying out genomewide identification,characterization and functional analysis of the significantly up-regulated OSCA gene,GhOSCA1.1 through reverse genetics.Result:A total of 35,21 and 22 OSCA genes were identified in G.hirsutum,G.arboreum,and G.raimondii genomes,respectively,and were classified into four different clades according to their gene structure and phylogenetic relationship.Gene and protein structure analysis indicated that 35 GhOSCA genes contained a conserved RSN17 TM(PF02714) domain.Moreover,the cis-regulatory element analysis indicated that the OSCA genes were involved in response to abiotic stress.Furthermore,the knockdown of one of the highly up-regulated genes,GhOSCA1.1 showed that the virus-induced gene silenced(VIGS) plants were highly sensitive to dehydration and salinity stresses compared with the none VIGS plants as evident with higher concentration levels of oxidant enzymes compared with the antioxidant enzymes on the leaves of the stressed plants.Conclusion:This study provides the first systematic analysis of the OSCA gene family and will be important for understanding the putative functions of the proteins encoded by the OSCA genes in cotton.These results provide a new insight of defense responses in general and lay the foundation for further investigation of the molecular role played by the OSCA genes,thereby providing suitable approaches to improve crop performance under salinity and drought stress conditions. | YANG Xiu XU Yanchao YANG Fangfang MAGWANGA Richard Odongo CAI Xiaoyan WANG Xingxing WANG Yuhong HOU Yuqing WANG Kunbo LIU Fang ZHOU Zhongli | 2019 | Journal of Cotton Research2019,2,2: | 7 |

| 11 | Facile Synthesis of N-Doped Graphene-Like Carbon Nanoflakes as Efficient and Stable Electrocatalysts for the Oxygen Reduction Reaction显示文摘A series of N-doped carbon materials(NCs)were synthesized by using biomass citric acid and dicyandiamide as renewable raw materials via a facile onestep pyrolysis method. The characterization of microstructural features shows that the NCs samples are composed of few-layered graphene-like nanoflakes with controlled in situ N doping, which is attributed to the confined pyrolysis of citric acid within the interlayers of the dicyandiamide-derived g-C_3N_4 with high nitrogen contents. Evidently, the pore volumes of the NCs increased with the increasing content of dicyandiamide in the precursor. Among these samples, the NCs nanoflakes prepared with the citric acid/dicyandiamide mass ratio of 1:6, NC-6,show the highest N content of ~6.2 at%, in which pyridinic and graphitic N groups are predominant. Compared to the commercial Pt/C catalyst, the as-prepared NC-6 exhibits a small negative shift of ~66 mV at the half-wave potential, demonstrating excellent electrocatalytic activity in the oxygen reduction reaction. Moreover, NC-6 also shows better long-term stability and resistance to methanol crossover compared to Pt/C. The efficient and stable performance are attributed to the graphene-like microstructure and high content of pyridinic and graphitic doped nitrogen in the sample, which creates more active sites as well as facilitating charge transfer due to the close four-electron reaction pathway. The superior electrocatalytic activity coupled with the facile synthetic method presents a new pathway to cost-effective electrocatalysts for practical fuel cells or metal–air batteries. | Daguo Gu Yao Zhou Ruguang Ma Fangfang Wang Qian Liu Jiacheng Wang | 2018 | Nano-Micro Letters2018,10,2: | 6 |

| 13 | Morphodynamics of an Artificial Cobble Beach in Tianquan Bay, Xiamen, China显示文摘By tracking and monitoring the profile configuration, topography, and hydrodynamic factors of an artificial cobble beach in Tianquan Bay, Xiamen, China over three consecutive years after its completion, we analyzed the evolution of its profile configura- tion and plane morphology, and its storm response characteristics. The evolution of the profile configuration of the artificial cobble beach in Tianquan Bay can be divided into four stages. The beach was unstable during the initial stage after the beach nourishment the profile configuration changed obviously, and an upper concave composite cobble beach formed gradually, which was character- ized by a steep upper part and a gentle lower part. In the second stage, the cobble beach approached dynamic equilibrium with minor changes in the profile configuration. At the third stage the beach was in a high-energy state under the influence of Typhoon Meranti, and the response of the artificial cobble beach differed significantly from that of the low-tide terrace sandy beach. Within a short time, there was net onshore transport of cobbles in the cross-shore direction. The beach face was eroded, the beach berm was accumulated, and the slope of the beach was steepened considerably. In the alongshore direction, there was notable transport of cobbles on the beach from east to west along the shore, and the total volume of the beach decreased by 4.5×103 m 3, which accounted for 50% of the total amount of beach volume lost within three years. The fourth stage was the restoration stage after the typhoon, characterized by a little gentler profile slope and the increase in width and the decrease in height of beach berm. Because of the action of waves and the wave-driven longshore current caused by the specific terrain and landform conditions along the coast (e.g., coastal headlands, near-shore artificial structures, and reefs), the coastline of the artificial cobble beach gradually evolved from being essentially parallel to the artificial coast upon completion to a slightly curved parabolic shape, and three distinct erosion hotspots were formed on the west side of the cape and the artificial drainpipe, and the reefs. Generally, the adoption of cobbles for beach nourishment on this macro-tidal coast beach with severe erosion has yielded excellent stability and adaptability. | SHU Fangfang CAI Feng QI Hongshuai LIU Jianhui LEI Gang ZHENG Jixiang | 2019 | Journal of Ocean University of China2019,18,4: | 5 |
| 14 | IDSRadar:a real-time visualization framework for IDS alerts显示文摘Intrusion Detection Systems(IDS) is an automated cyber security monitoring system to sense malicious activities.Unfortunately,IDS often generates both a considerable number of alerts and false positives in IDS logs.Information visualization allows users to discover and analyze large amounts of information through visual exploration and interaction efficiently.Even with the aid of visualization,identifying the attack patterns and recognizing the false positives from a great number of alerts are still challenges.In this paper,a novel visualization framework,IDSRadar,is proposed for IDS alerts,which can monitor the network and perceive the overall view of the security situation by using radial graph in real-time.IDSRadar utilizes five categories of entropy functions to quantitatively analyze the irregular behavioral patterns,and synthesizes interactions,filtering and drill-down to detect the potential intrusions.In conclusion,IDSRadar is used to analyze the mini-challenges of the VAST challenge 2011 and 2012. | ZHAO Ying ZHOU FangFang FAN XiaoPing LIANG Xing LIU YongGang | 2013 | Science China(Information Sciences)2013,56,8: | 5 |
| 15 | Activin A maintains cerebral cortex neuronal survival and increases voltage-gated Na^+ neuronal current显示文摘Activin A,which was first described in 1986,has been shown to maintain hippocampal neuronal survival.Activin A increases intracellular free Ca2+ via L-type Ca2+ channels.Our previous study showed that activin A promotes neurite growth of dorsal root ganglia in embryonic chickens and inhibits nitric oxide secretion.The present study demonstrated for the first time that activin A could maintain cerebral cortex neuronal survival in vitro for a long period,and that activin A was shown to increase voltage-gated Na+ current(INa) in Neuro-2a cells,which was recorded by patch clamp technique.The present study revealed a novel mechanism for activin A,as well as the influence of activin A on neurons by regulating expressions of vasoactive intestine peptide and inducible nitric oxide synthase. | Jingyan Ge Yinan Wang Haiyan Liu Fangfang Chen Xueling Cui Zhonghui Liu | 2010 | Neural Regeneration Research2010,5,19: | 4 |
| 16 | Synthesis, bioactivity, action mode and 3D-QSAR of novel anthranilic diamide derivatives显示文摘To study the pesticide effect, action mode, structure-activity relationships (SARs) of anthranilic diamide insecticide and screen highly active pesticides, novel anthranilic diamide derivatives were synthesized.Bioassays indicated that all of the title compounds displayed 100% mortality against diamondback moth and oriental armyworm at 100 mg/L, among which 12 v and 12 w showed 100% insecticidal acitvity at 5 mg/L. Surprisingly compound 12 w exhibited better insecticidal acitvity than commercialized chlorantraniliprole against Pyrausta nubilalis (0.1 mg/L) and Cnaphalocrocis Medinalis (2 mg/L). 3 D-QSAR and SARs statistical analysis revealed that title compounds with R^2 fixed as methoxy had the highest probability possessing high activity. The calcium fluorescence measurements on neurons revealed that E series compounds containing pyrazinyl may have a molecular target different from caffeine on ryanodine receptors rather than the voltage-gated calcium channel present on cytomembran. | Weijie Liu Jiao Li Kai He Fangfang Huang Yi Ma Yuxin Li Qingshan Li Fengbo Xu | 2019 | Chinese Chemical Letters2019,30,2: | 4 |
| 17 | Rolling up MXene sheets into scrolls to promote their anode performance in lithium-ion batteries显示文摘Although Ti3 C2 MXene sheets have attracted extensive attention in lithium-ion storage techniques,their restacking makes against and even hinders the Li ions diffusion within them,thereby decreasing the capacity as well as rate performance of conventional MXene anode.Here,for the first time,we roll up the Ti3 C2 Tx sheets into scrolls with unclosed topological structure and the interlayer galleries to alleviate the restacking problem.Thus,Ti3 C2 Tx scrolls as anode materials in lithium-ion batteries(LIBs)have higher capacity and better rate performance than Ti3 C2 Tx sheets.On the bases of these,high-capacity silicon nanoparticles are added during the rolling process to in-situ produce Ti3 C2 Tx/Si composite scrolls.The addition of 10%silicon nanoparticles shows the best overall improvement among capacity,rate capability and cyclic stability for Ti3 C2 Tx scrolls. | Jianing Meng Fangfang Zhang Li Zhang Lingyang Liu Jiangtao Chen Bingjun Yang Xingbin Yan | 2020 | Journal of Energy Chemistry2020,29,7: | 4 |
| 18 | Mechanism underlying the retarded nuclear translocation of androgen receptor splice variants显示文摘As shown in our previous study, two alternatively spliced androgen receptor(AR) variants, which are exclusively expressed in the granulosa cells of patients with polycystic ovary syndrome, exhibit retarded nuclear translocation compared with wild-type AR. However, researchers have not yet determined whether these abnormalities correlate with heat shock protein 90(HSP90)and importin α(the former is a generally accepted co-chaperone of AR, and the latter is a component of classical nuclear import complexes). Here, these two variants were mainly retained in cytoplasm with HSP90 and importin α in the presence of dihydrotestosterone(DHT), and their levels in nucleus were significantly reduced, according to the immunofluorescence staining. The binding affinity of two AR variants for importin α was consistently decreased, while it was increased in WT-AR following DHT stimulation, leading to reduced nuclear import, particularly for the insertion-AR(Ins-AR). However, the binding affinities of two AR variants for HSP90 were increased in the absence of DHT compared with WT-AR, which functioned to maintain spatial structural stability, particularly for the deletion-AR(Del-AR). Therefore, the retarded nuclear translocation of two AR variants is associated with HSP90 and importin α, and the abnormal binding affinities for them play critical roles in this process. | Ye Liu Yinyu Wang Fangfang Wang Jiexue Pan Jingjing Xu Jingyi Li Chengliang Zhou Guolian Ding Yanting Wu Xinmei Liu Jianzhong Sheng Hefeng Huang | 2019 | Science China(Life Sciences)2019,62,2: | 4 |
| 19 | Effects of copper mining on heavy metal contamination in a rice agrosystem in the Xiaojiang River Basin, southwest China显示文摘Metallic ore mining causes heavy metal pollution worldwide.However,the fate of heavy metals in agrosystems with long-term contamination has been poorly studied.Dongchuan District(Yunnan,southwest China),located at the middle reaches of the Xiaojiang River,is a well-known 2000-year-old copper mining site.In this work,a survey on soil heavy metal contents was conducted using a handheld X-ray fluorescence instrument to understand the general contamination of heavy metals in the Xiaojiang River Basin.Furthermore,river water,soil,and rice samples at six sites along the fluvial/alluvial fans of the river were collected and analyzed to implement an environmental assessment and an evaluation of irrigated agrosystem.V,Zn,and Cu soil levels(1724,1047,and 696mg·kg-1,respectively)far exceeded background levels.The geo-accumulation indexes(Igeo)showed that cultivated soils near the mining sites were polluted by Cd and Cu,followed by Zn,V,Pb,Cr,Ni,and U.The pollution index(Pi)indicated that rice in the area was heavily polluted with Pb,Cr,Cd,Ni,Zn,and Cu.The difference in orders of metal concentrations between the soil and rice heavy metal contamination was related to the proportion of bioavailable heavy metals in the soil.The crop consumption risk assessment showed that the hazard quotient exceeded the safe threshold,indicating a potential carcinogenic risk to consumers.The Nemerow integrated pollution index and health index indicated that the middle of the river(near the mining area)was the heaviest polluted site. | Wanqiu Pu Jiaqi Sun Fangfang Zhang Xingyue Wen Wenhu Liu Chengmin Huang | 2019 | Acta Geochimica2019,38,5: | 4 |
| 20 | Pivoting plant immunity from theory to the field显示文摘Plants live in complex environments and are constantly exposed to potential pathogens with different lifestyles and infection strategies.The evolutionary arms race between plants and their attackers has provided plants with a highly sophisticated and multi-layered defense system,which recognizes pathogen molecules and responds by activating defense pathways in order to resist the invaders.Here,we discuss recent developments in plant immunity,summarize conserved anti-microbial defense outputs and pathways,and provide new insights into the edge-cutting theories and technologies applied in crop production to enhance disease resistance.In the near future,the wide application of plant immune activators and precious bio-edited disease resistant agronomic crops will bring green,economic,and sustainable agriculture to reality. | Fangfang Li Wende Liu Xueping Zhou | 2019 | Science China(Life Sciences)2019,62,11: | 4 |
