Study Reveals How Climate Warming Intensifies Insect Outbreaks to Suppress Aquatic Plant Recovery

Prof. XU Jun from the Institute of Hydrobiology (IHB) of the Chinese Academy of Sciences, in collaboration with Peking University, University of Essex, and Huazhong Agricultural University, has uncovered a novel mechanism by which climate warming impedes the recovery of submerged plants through intensified herbivory during insect outbreaks.
IHB Researchers Explore How AI is Reshaping Biological Taxonomy

The paper highlights that biological taxonomy has reached a critical turning point, shifting from traditional morphology- and molecular-based frameworks toward an AI-driven paradigm.
