The scientific personnel and graduate students have kept on studying in different research domains. Recently, research advances have been made in biomass energy, co-evolution between fig and fig wasps, plant energy storage, etc. These research observations are accepted or published on academic journals.

Here is a list of some recently published papers by XTBG:
