Second‐Generation Polyhydroxybutyrate Production From Pretreated Corn Lignocellulosic Fraction as a Strategy to Repurpose by Products From the Corn‐Processing Chain

Biotechnology and Applied Biochemistry, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Lignocellulosic residues are non‐cost, non‐edible, renewable feedstocks that can be used in polyhydroxybutyrate (PHB) production. PHB is a bioplastic synthetized by microorganisms, formed intracellularly under stressful growth conditions; however, its production costs are high, representing the major drawback for fossil‐based plastics ...

Genotype and Nitrogen Source Influence Drought Stress Response in Oil Palm Seedlings

Agronomy
As a significant global source of vegetable oil, the oil palm’s ability to withstand abiotic stresses, particularly drought, is crucial for sustainable agriculture. This is especially significant in tropical regions, where water scarcity is becoming more

Potential contribution of biomass gasification‐based technology in energy transition: a technical review coupled with bibliometric studies

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Biomass gasification technology has been extensively researched around the world; however, there is a need to evaluate the current research landscape and evolutionary direction of research in the broader context of energy transition. A systematic bibliometric analysis of the Web of Science database was performed for articles that fall within ...

Comparative transcriptomic analysis of Metisa plana: downregulation of cry toxin receptors and detoxification genes in populations with reduced susceptibility to Bacillus thuringiensis biopesticide

Chemical and Biological Technologies in Agriculture
Metisa plana Walker (Lepidoptera: Psychidae) is a major defoliator in oil palm plantations. The continuous application of Bacillus thuringiensis (Bt) bioinsecticide has raised concerns about its declining efficacy.

The effect of blanching and food additives on the shelf life of kopyor coconut flesh preserved in chiller [PDF]

BIO Web of Conferences
Kopyor coconut is a unique coconut native to Indonesia characterized by crumbly flesh and a savory taste. Unlike common coconuts, kopyor coconut undergoes natural mutation, lacking the ability to produce the enzyme α-galactosidase, which results in its ...

Macaúba (Acrocomia aculeata) pulp oil ethylic biodiesel using lipase from Aspergillus oryzae: kinetic and process parameters

Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.
Abstract Macaúba (Acrocomia aculeata), a native species from Brazilian biomes, has emerged as a sustainable alternative to vegetable oil production. Its fruit presents high oil yield (3–6 ton/ha), extracted from its kernel and pulp. While the kernel is suitable for food and cosmetics application, the pulp oil has been considered as a promising ...

Construction of PHB and PHBV transformation vectors for bioplastics production in oil palm [PDF]

, 2008
The construction of transformation vectors carrying bioplastic biosynthetic genes driven by constitutive and oil palm mesocarp-specific promoters was completed. Four planned transformation vectors were produced. The poly-3-hydroxybutyrate (PHB) producing
