Harnessing plant‐based platform for low‐cost cellulosic sugar recovery from bioenergy crops
Biofuels, Bioproducts and Biorefining, EarlyView.Abstract The price of pure cellulase enzyme for the recovery of fermentable cellulosic sugars is one of the major challenges that limit the commercialization of second‐generation biofuels and bio‐based products. This work shows a means to greatly reduce the cost of cellulases. The abundant capacity of plants to synthesize and hyperaccumulate transgenic
