As a scientific issue characterized by both controversy and sensitivity to public risk, genetically modified (GM) technology has become an important entry point for understanding contemporary science communication through its dissemination and acceptance among young people. This study takes 25 Chinese youth aged 19–27 as its research participants, collects data through semi-structured in-depth interviews,

Experts from Zhejiang University have developed a new rapid visual detection method for Tomato leaf curl New Delhi virus (ToLCNDV), a plant pathogen that causes major crop losses worldwide. The system is designed to improve early field diagnosis and help control the spread of the virus in important crops, such as members of the Solanaceae and Cucurbitaceae families.
