Oxidative Catalytic Fractionation of Lignocellulosic Biomass under Non-alkaline Conditions

Hao Luo, Eric P. Weeda, Manar Alherech, Colin W. Anson et autres

Biomass pretreatment methods are commonly used to isolate carbohydrates from biomass, but they often lead to modification, degradation, and/or low yields of lignin. Catalytic fractionation approaches provide a possible solution to these challenges by separating the polymeric sugar and lignin fractions in …

Performance of three delignifying pretreatments on hardwoods: hydrolysis yields, comprehensive mass balances, and lignin properties

Aditya Bhalla, Charles M. Cai, Feng Xu, Sandip K. Singh et autres

Abstract Background In this work, three pretreatments under investigation at the DOE Bioenergy Research Centers (BRCs) were subjected to a side-by-side comparison to assess their performance on model bioenergy hardwoods (a eucalyptus and a hybrid poplar). These include co-solvent-enhanced lignocellulosic fractionation (CELF), …

Estimation of Syringyl Units in Wood Lignins by FT-Raman Spectroscopy

Umesh P. Agarwal, Sally A. Ralph, Dharshana Padmakshan, Sarah Liu et autres

Syringyl (S) lignin content and the syringyl-to-guaiacyl (S/G) lignin ratio are important characteristics of wood and lignocellulosic biomass. Although numerous methods are available for estimating S lignin units and the S/G ratio, in this work, a new method based on Raman spectroscopy …

Structural features of alternative lignin monomers associated with improved digestibility of artificially lignified maize cell walls

John H. Grabber, Christy Davidson, Yuki Tobimatsu, Hoon Kim et autres

Plant biologists are seeking new approaches for modifying lignin to improve the digestion and utilization of structural polysaccharides in crop cultivars for the production of biofuels, biochemicals, and livestock. To identify promising targets for lignin bioengineering, we artificially lignified maize (Zea mays …

DRMY1, a Myb-Like Protein, Regulates Cell Expansion and Seed Production in Arabidopsis thaliana

Peipei Wu, Mingsheng Peng, Zhigang Li, Ning Yuan et autres

Plant organ development to a specific size and shape is controlled by cell proliferation and cell expansion. Here, we identify a novel Myb-like Arabidopsis gene, Development Related Myb-like1 (DRMY1), which controls cell expansion in both vegetative and reproductive organs. DRMY1 is strongly …

Different Routes for Conifer- and Sinapaldehyde and Higher Saccharification upon Deficiency in the Dehydrogenase CAD1

Rebecca Van Acker, Annabelle Déjardin, Sandrien Desmet, Lennart Hoengenaert et autres

In the search for renewable energy sources, genetic engineering is a promising strategy to improve plant cell wall composition for biofuel and bioproducts generation. Lignin is a major factor determining saccharification efficiency and, therefore, is a prime target to engineer. Here, lignin …

Identification of developmental stage and anatomical fraction contributions to cell wall recalcitrance in switchgrass

Jacob D. Crowe, Nicholas Feringa, Sivakumar Pattathil, Brian Merritt et autres

BACKGROUND: Heterogeneity within herbaceous biomass can present important challenges for processing feedstocks to cellulosic biofuels. Alterations to cell wall composition and organization during plant growth represent major contributions to heterogeneity within a single species or cultivar. To address this challenge, the focus …
