    Abstract Layered materials with unique structures and symmetries have attracted tremendous interest for constructing 2-dimensional (2D) structures. The weak interlayer interaction renders them to be readily isolated into various ultrathin nanosheets with exotic properties and diverse applications. In order to enrich the library of 2D materials, extensive progress has been made in the field of ternary layered materials. Consequently, many brand-new materials are derived, which greatly extend the members of 2D realm. In this review, we emphasize the recent progress made in synthesis and exploration of ternary layered materials. We first classify them in terms of stoichiometric ratio and summarize their difference in interlayer interaction, which is of great importance to produce corresponding 2D materials. The compositional and structural characteristics of resultant 2D ternary materials are then discussed so as to realize desired structures and properties. As a new family of 2D materials, we overview the layer-dependent properties and related applications in the fields of electronics, optoelectronics, and energy storage and conversion. The review finally provides a perspective for this rapidly developing field.

    Abstract Abstract Hydrogen production coupled with biomass upgrading is vital for future sustainable energy developments. However, most biomass electrooxidation reactions suffer from high working voltage and low current density, which substantially hinder large-scale industrial applications. Herein, we report an acidic hydrogen production system that combined anodic ascorbic acid electrooxidation with cathodic hydrogen evolution. Unlike C-H and O-H bonds cleavage with slow kinetics in conventional organic oxidation, the highly active enol structure in ascorbic acid allows for an ultralow overpotential of only 12 mV@10 mA/cm2 using Fe single-atom catalysts, and reaches 1 A/cm2 at only 0.75 V (versus reversible hydrogen electrode) with approximately 100% Faraday efficiency for hydrogen production. Furthermore, the fabricated two-electrode membrane-free electrolyser delivers an industrial current density of 2 A/cm2@1.1 V at 60 °C (2.63 kWh/Nm3 H2), which requires half of the electricity consumption in conventional water electrolysis (~5 kWh/Nm3 H2). This work provides a new avenue for achieving industrial-scale hydrogen production from biomass.

    Abstract Tassel branch number (TBN) is the principal component of maize tassel inflorescence architecture and is a typical quantitative trait controlled by multiple genes. The main objective of this research was to detect quantitative trait loci (QTLs) for TBN. The maize inbred line SICAU1212 was used as the common parent to develop BC1S1 and recombinant inbred line (RIL) populations with inbred lines 3237 and B73, respectively. The two related populations consisted of 123 and 238 lines, respectively. Each population was grown and phenotyped for TBN in two environments. Eleven QTLs were detected in the BC1S1 population, located on chromosomes 2, 3, 5, and 7, accounted for 4.45–26.58% of the phenotypic variation. Two QTLs (qB11Jtbn2-1, qB12Ctbn2-1, qBJtbn2-1; q11JBtbn5-1, qB12Ctbn5-1, qBJtbn5-1) that accounted for more than 10% of the phenotypic variation were identified. Three QTLs located on chromosomes 2, 3 and 5, exhibited stable expression in the two environments. Ten QTLs were detected in the RIL population, located on chromosomes 2, 3, 5, 8, and 10, accounted for 2.69–13.58% of the TBN variation. One QTL (qR14Dtbn2-2) explained >10% of the phenotypic variation. One common QTL (qB12Ctbn2-2, qR14Dtbn2-2, qRJtbn2-2) was detected between the two related populations. Three pairs of epistatic effects were identified between two loci with or without additive effects and accounted for 1.19–4.26% of the phenotypic variance. These results demonstrated that TBN variation was mainly caused by major effects, minor effects and slightly modified by epistatic effects. Thus, identification of QTL for TBN may help elucidate the genetic basis of TBN and also facilitate map-based cloning and marker-assisted selection (MAS) in maize breeding programs.
