Professor Youngryel Ryu group from Department of Landscape Architecture and Rural Systems Engineering at SNU has mapped carbon stock and growth of individual street trees using LiDAR-camera fusion-basd mobile mapping system and published this work in Remote Sensing of Environment. Urban areas remain one of the ...

Professor Moon-Seong Kang’s research team from SNU CALS has developed a Web-based Rainfall Erosivity Calculation (WREC) decision support tool, which enables rapid and accurate estimation of rainfall erosivity based on the resolution of meteorological data available to users. Soil erosion is a significant ...

o This study investigates the genetic mechanisms by which the probiotic Bacillus subtilis regulates nitric oxide (NO) metabolism and its effects on host aging and neurodegeneration.o A microbial genome-wide association study (mGWAS) was conducted using 1,654 gene deletion mutants of B. subtilis to identify strains t...

o Methane produced in the rumen—the main digestive organ of ruminants—is recognized as a major contributor to greenhouse gas emissions from global livestock industries. While chemical additives and antibiotic-based inhibitors have been previously investigated, their limited sustainability and adverse eff...

Prof. Tae-Jin Yang’s team at Seoul National University assembled a high-quality genome of Glycyrrhiza uralensis and revealed the hybrid origin and evolutionary history of licorice species through genome-wide analysis of 29 individuals. The study identified three hybrid groups bridging G. uralensis and G. glabr...

The SNU CALS research team, led by Prof. Younghoon Kim, has demonstrated that probiotic-derived extracellular vesicles effectively alleviate atopic dermatitis by modulating the gut microbiota. These groundbreaking findings offer novel insights into the underlying mechanisms and pave the way for the development of ne...

SNU CALS team led by Prof. Hyungsuk Kim has demonstrated the capability of chlorophyll fluorescence signal to detect crop physiological changes induced by agronomic factors and contributed to understanding of crop physiological dynamics in the field and sustainable agriculture by advancing the application of crop re...

The SNU CALS team, led by Prof. Jun-Hyung Tak, has presented a framework to optimize the composition of natural product-based pesticides, maximizing pesticidal activity while minimizing undesirable effects such as ecotoxicity and phytotoxicity. Recognizing the challenges in using botanicals as sustainable pest ...

Professor Choi’s research team at SNU has identified the Vibrio vulnificus transcription factors at a genome-wide scale and characterized their functions comprehensively, proposing novel targets to control the pathogen. For successful infection, the life-threatening pathogen Vibrio vulnificus elaborately ...

Prof. Tae-Jin Yang’s team from Seoul National University established a foundation for a molecular breeding in Panax ginseng by developing high-throughput SNP chip and suggested diverse applications for its use, with findings published in Horticulture Research in December, 2024.
