The Structural–Rhythmological Organization of Coelogyne (Orchidaceae Juss.) Inflorescences
The morphostructure of inflorescences in the genus Coelogyne Lindl. was studied for the first time using a structural–rhythmological approach. Three species of Coelogyne were used to describe one-season, intercalary, and all-season inflorescences.

Extraction of Corn Bract Cellulose by the Ammonia-Coordinated Bio-Enzymatic Method
This study explored a green and efficient method for cellulose extraction from corn bract. The cellulose extraction by the CHB (CH3COOH/H2O2/Bio-enzyme) method and the N-CHB (NH3·H2O-CH3COOH/H2O2/Bio-enzyme) method were compared and analyzed.
