Overexpression of GA20-OXIDASE1 impacts plant height, biomass allocation and saccharification efficiency in maize [PDF]

, 2015
Increased biomass yield and quality are of great importance for the improvement of feedstock for the biorefinery. For the production of bioethanol, both stem biomass yield and the conversion efficiency of the polysaccharides in the cell wall to ...

Comparison of solid and liquid fractions of pretreated Norway spruce as reductants in LPMO-supported saccharification of cellulose

Frontiers in Bioengineering and Biotechnology, 2022
The role of lignin in enzymatic saccharification of cellulose involving lytic polysaccharide monooxygenase (LPMO) was investigated in experiments with the solid and liquid fractions of pretreated Norway spruce from a biorefinery demonstration plant using

Lignin engineering in forest trees [PDF]

, 2019
Wood is a renewable resource that is mainly composed of lignin and cell wall polysaccharides. The polysaccharide fraction is valuable as it can be converted into pulp and paper, or into fermentable sugars.

Strategies for enzyme saving during saccharification of pretreated lignocellulo-starch biomass: effect of enzyme dosage and detoxification chemicals

Heliyon, 2017
Two strategies leading to enzyme saving during saccharification of pretreated lignocellulo-starch biomass (LCSB) was investigated which included reducing enzyme dosage by varying their levels in enzyme cocktails and enhancing the fermentable sugar yield ...

Brassinosteroid overproduction improves lignocellulose quantity and quality to maximize bioethanol yield under green-like biomass process in transgenic poplar

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2020
Background As a leading biomass feedstock, poplar plants provide enormous lignocellulose resource convertible for biofuels and bio-chemicals. However, lignocellulose recalcitrance particularly in wood plants, basically causes a costly bioethanol ...
