Denisovans are a genetically identified archaic hominin group believed to have been widely distributed across Asia. However, due to the limited number of fossil remains, especially postcranial bones—those

Scientists have recently found that a long‑term dominant diatom in China's South-to-North Water Diversion Project maintains its edge through a mutually reinforced cycle with bacteria , whereas a short‑term dominant species lacks such a close partnership and is far less resilient . The study, led by researchers from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, was publish
