Fast charging is a dynamic challenge; therefore, understanding and improving fast charging performance requires insights from the atomic to the system level.

Scientists have used genomics to peer even deeper into the lychee’s history. And in the process, they’ve uncovered insights that could help shape the species’ future, too.

Exotic fruits that mature within a small seasonal window and are difficult to store must be consumed quickly, making it hard for farmers to make a profit. Scientists have now created a reference sequence of one such tropical fruit, lychee, and applied insights on genetic variations to develop a simple genetic test that predicts when the tree will flower and fruit, when the plant is still young.

A look into the lychee genome reveals the fruit's origin and domestication history in ancient China.

BUFFALO, N.Y. — They’re prickly on the outside, sweet on the inside, and beloved for their iconic pink shells and pearly, fragrant fruit. In the U.S
