Interactive and unimodal relationships between plant biomass, abiotic factors, and plant diversity in global grasslands. [PDF]

Commun Biol
Grasslands cover approximately a third of the Earth’s land surface and account for about a third of terrestrial carbon storage. Yet, we lack strong predictive models of grassland plant biomass, the primary source of carbon in grasslands.

Diverse Banana Pseudostems and Rachis Are Distinctive for Edible Carbohydrates and Lignocellulose Saccharification towards High Bioethanol Production under Chemical and Liquid Hot Water Pretreatments

Molecules, 2021
Banana is a major fruit crop throughout the world with abundant lignocellulose in the pseudostem and rachis residues for biofuel production. In this study, we collected a total of 11 pseudostems and rachis samples that were originally derived from ...

Down-regulation of OsMYB103L distinctively alters beta-1,4-glucan polymerization and cellulose microfibers assembly for enhanced biomass enzymatic saccharification in rice

Biotechnology for Biofuels, 2021
Background As a major component of plant cell walls, cellulose provides the most abundant biomass resource convertible for biofuels. Since cellulose crystallinity and polymerization have been characterized as two major features accounting for ...

Distinctively altered lignin biosynthesis by site‐modification of OsCAD2 for enhanced biomass saccharification in rice

GCB Bioenergy, 2021
Crop straws represent enormous biomass resource convertible for biofuels and bioproducts, but lignocellulose recalcitrance restricts its saccharification for commercial utility.

Full-Chain FeCl₃ Catalyzation Is Sufficient to Boost Cellulase Secretion and Cellulosic Ethanol along with Valorized Supercapacitor and Biosorbent Using Desirable Corn Stalk

Molecules, 2023
Cellulosic ethanol is regarded as a perfect additive for petrol fuels for global carbon neutralization. As bioethanol conversion requires strong biomass pretreatment and overpriced enzymatic hydrolysis, it is increasingly considered in the exploration of

Xylooligosaccharides produced from sugarcane leaf arabinoxylan using xylanase from Aureobasidium pullulans NRRL 58523 and its prebiotic activity toward Lactobacillus spp.

Heliyon, 2023
In an attempt to enhance the value of sugarcane leaf, xylan was extracted and used for xylooligosaccharide (XO) production via enzymatic hydrolysis using xylanase from the black yeast Aureobasidium pullulans.

The regulatory and transcriptional landscape associated with carbon utilization in a filamentous fungus. [PDF]

, 2020
Filamentous fungi, such as Neurospora crassa, are very efficient in deconstructing plant biomass by the secretion of an arsenal of plant cell wall-degrading enzymes, by remodeling metabolism to accommodate production of secreted enzymes, and by enabling ...

Single-molecular insights into the breakpoint of cellulose nanofibers assembly during saccharification

Nature Communications, 2023
Lignocellulose recalcitrance hampers its utilization for the production of biofuels and biosourced chemicals. Here, the authors reveal that the amorphous cellulose is the breakpoint of interact microfibrils and propose OsFC16/CESA9 as the engineering ...
