Deep Straw Incorporation With Supplemental Fertilization Improves Subsoil Quality and Maize Productivity

Land Degradation &Development, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Deep straw incorporation is widely advocated for enhancing crop yields and improving agroecosystem functions and services. However, how this practice interacts with different fertilization strategies synergistically to influence soil quality and maize productivity remains unclear.

Advancements and Challenges in Second‐ and Third‐Generation Biofuels: A Comparative Analysis of Lignocellulosic and Algal Feedstocks

Safety Science and Technology, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Advanced biofuels derived from nonfood biomass are increasingly recognized as strategic components of low‐carbon energy systems, particularly for sectors where direct electrification remains difficult. Second‐generation biofuels from lignocellulosic residues and third‐generation biofuels from algal and aquatic biomass offer complementary ...

Plant genotypic diversity and defoliation jointly shape root exudation, fungal communities, and carbon and nitrogen cycling

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Experimental design. Summary Intraspecific plant diversity is a major component of community diversity, yet its role in shaping plant–microbial interactions and soil functioning remains poorly understood. In particular, plant genotypic diversity may modulate ecosystem responses to defoliation, a key driver of ecosystem processes in grazed systems.

Two structurally discrete GH7-cellobiohydrolases compete for the same cellulosic substrate fiber

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2012
Background Cellulose consisting of arrays of linear beta-1,4 linked glucans, is the most abundant carbon-containing polymer present in biomass. Recalcitrance of crystalline cellulose towards enzymatic degradation is widely reported and is the result of ...

Expression of a Hyperthermophilic Cellobiohydrolase in Transgenic Nicotiana tabacum by Protein Storage Vacuole Targeting

Plants, 2020
Plant expression of microbial Cell Wall Degrading Enzymes (CWDEs) is a valuable strategy to produce industrial enzymes at affordable cost. Unfortunately, the constitutive expression of CWDEs may affect plant fitness to variable extents, including ...

Brewer’s spent grain as substrate for enzyme and reducing sugar production using Penicillium sp. HC1

Revista de la Academia Colombiana de Ciencias Exactas, Físicas y Naturales, 2021
Brewer’s spent grain (BSG) is the main solid waste from the brewing process. It is recognized as a valuable resource for biobased industries because of its composition, high availability, and low cost.

Ectomycorrhizal Cortinariaceae species dominate class II peroxidase gene expression in a boreal forest soil

New Phytologist, EarlyView.
Share of transcripts and ITS2 sequence for each gene families among identified fungal contigs and OTUs. Summary Boreal forest ecosystems constitute a large terrestrial reservoir of carbon. In these nitrogen‐limited environments, release of nutrients through decomposition of soil organic matter is of fundamental importance.

Soluble protein analog selection engine (SPASE): An automated AI‐powered server to improve protein engineering workflows

Protein Science, Volume 35, Issue 9, September 2026.
Abstract The design of proteins with desired biophysical properties, such as high solubility and low aggregation propensity, is crucial for various biotechnological and biomedical applications. While deep learning‐based methods like ProteinMPNN have shown remarkable success in protein sequence design, their direct output may not always exhibit optimal ...

SsdchA is a novel secretory cellobiohydrolase driving pathogenicity in Sclerotinia sclerotiorum

Crop Journal
The necrotrophic fungus, Sclerotinia sclerotiorum, employs an array of cell wall-degrading enzymes (CWDEs), including cellulase, to dismantle host cell walls. However, the molecular mechanisms through which S.
