Evaluation of Greenbug and Yellow Sugarcane Aphid Feeding Behavior on Resistant and Susceptible Switchgrass Cultivars
BioEnergy Research - Tập 11 - Trang 480-490 - 2018
Switchgrass (Panicum virgatum L.) is an emerging biofuel crop that serves as host for aphids. To discern the effects of plant age and possible resistance mechanisms, the feeding behavior of greenbugs (Schizaphis graminum Rondani.) and the yellow sugarcane aphid (Sipha flava Forbes.) was monitored on three diverse switchgrasses by the electrical penetration graph (EPG) technique. Callose deposition......
Degradation of Untreated Switchgrass Biomass into Reducing Sugars in 1-(Alkylsulfonic)-3-Methylimidazolium Brönsted Acidic Ionic Liquid Medium Under Mild Conditions
BioEnergy Research - Tập 6 - Trang 719-724 - 2012
Switchgrass biomass samples collected at three different stages of maturity were seen degrading into reducing sugars and glucose when exposed to 1-(alkylsulfonic)-3-methylimidazolium Brönsted acidic ionic liquids under thermal and microwave conditions. The highest reducing sugar (58.1 ± 2.1 %) and glucose (15.3 ± 0.5 %) yields were obtained for switchgrass samples dissolved in 1-(butylsulfonic)-3-......
Investigating Carbon Dioxide Transfer for Intensive Cultures of the Microalga Tetradesmus obliquus
BioEnergy Research - - Trang 1-10 - 2023
Carbon dioxide (CO2) transfer in the intensive cultivation of microalgae is a crucial process in photobioreactor performance. This study evaluated three operating conditions (bubble size, aeration rate, and CO2 concentration) to improve the growth performance of the microalga Tetradesmus obliquus in a laboratory–scale photobioreactor. Two types of air diffusers were used (glass pipette and a sinte......
The US Department of Energy Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center: Midwestern Biomass as a Resource for Renewable Fuels
BioEnergy Research - Tập 3 - Trang 3-5 - 2010
The Great Lakes Bioenergy Research Center is one of three Bioenergy Research Centers establish by the US Department of Energy and the only one based at an academic institution. The Center’s mission is to perform basic and applied science to enable economically and environmentally sustainable production of liquid fuels derived from biomass. The research is focused on converting plant biomass into s......
Application of Molecular Simulations Toward Understanding Cellulase Mechanisms
BioEnergy Research - Tập 11 - Trang 850-867 - 2018
Computational approaches have provided new biological insights into the chemical mechanism of action of cellulases, which are used in the industrial production of bioethanol. Fine-grained methods, such as molecular dynamics and quantum mechanics, as well as coarse-grained methods, such as elastic network models, were used to investigate how the chemistry and structural dynamics of these enzymes co......
Vertical Distribution of Corn Stover Dry Mass Grown at Several US Locations
BioEnergy Research - Tập 4 - Trang 11-21 - 2010
Corn (Zea mays L.) stover was identified as a renewable non-food agricultural feedstock for production of liquid fuels, biopower, and other bioproducts, but it is also needed for erosion control, carbon sequestration, and nutrient cycling. To help balance these multiple demands, our objectives were to (1) determine height distribution of corn stover biomass, (2) quantify the percentage of stover t......
Identification of Fusarium oxysporum Genes Associated with Lignocellulose Bioconversion Competency
BioEnergy Research - Tập 7 - Trang 110-119 - 2013
Fusarium oxysporum can convert straw to ethanol via consolidated bioprocessing (CBP)—a two-stage process that firstly involves aerobic saccharification and thereafter an oxygen-limiting fermentation phase. The efficacy of CBP is dependent upon the fungal strain used. Using suppression subtractive hybridisation (SSH), a total of 210 transcripts were identified as being overexpresse......
Implications of Three Biofuel Crops for Beneficial Arthropods in Agricultural Landscapes
BioEnergy Research - Tập 3 - Trang 6-19 - 2010
Production of biofuel feedstocks in agricultural landscapes will result in land use changes that may have major implications for arthropod-mediated ecosystem services such as pollination and pest suppression. By comparing the abundance and diversity of insect pollinators and generalist natural enemies in three model biofuel crops: corn, switchgrass, and mixed prairie, we tested the hypothesis that......
Microalgae Isolation for Nutrient Removal Assessment and Biodiesel Production
BioEnergy Research - Tập 13 - Trang 1247-1259 - 2020
This study was designed to isolate microalgal species which can tolerate severe environmental stresses and can be used for wastewater treatment and biofuel generation. Three different microalgal strains (including Chlorella sorokiniana GEEL-01, Parachlorella kessleri GEEL-02, and Parachlorella kessleri GEEL-03) were isolated from a wastewater treatment plant and Waterwheel Park. The highest growth......
