    CHINA-YUNNAN-LIJIANG-BOTANIC GARDEN-RESEARCH (CN)

    (240410) -- LIJIANG, April 10, 2024 (Xinhua) -- Fan Zhongyu checks an equipment for collecting seeds at a sample area in Lijiang Alpine Botanic Garden in Lijiang, southwest China's Yunnan Province, March 28, 2024. Lijiang Alpine Botanic Garden of Kunming Institute of Botany, Chinese Academy of Sciences, is located in the Yulong Snow Mountain. With an elevation difference of about 1 kilometer, seeds could be conserved under favorable conditions in this area. As the director of the botanic garden, Xu Kun is specialized in plant resources and conservation biology. Recently, in the lab, Xu has observed that the seeds of Cypripedium flavum germinated three months ahead of schedule, which made him feel excited. This means that following experiments could be carried out sooner. The seed germination conditions of endangered Cypripedium are usually strict, and there are few new seedlings each year. After years of research, Xu and his team have obtained the aseptic germination technique of seeds of 4 Cypripedium specie

            KYOTO, Japan - Kyoto University professor Shinya Yamanaka holds a press conference in Kyoto on Sept. 12, 2014, after a Japanese research team transplanted retinal cells grown from induced pluripotent stem cells to a woman in her 70s earlier in the day, marking the first time iPS-derived cells have been introduced into a human body by surgery. Yamanaka developed iPS cells, a type of stem cells that can grow into various human body tissue. (Kyodo)
