The consumption of bioethanol as biofule may reduce greenhouse gases, gasoline imports.
Also it can be replaced with lead or MTBE (Methyl tert-butyl ether) that are air and …

Recent developments have altered our view of molecular mechanisms that determine sink
strength, defined here as the capacity of non-photosynthetic structures to compete for import …

Abstract Background Sorghum (Sorghum bicolor) is globally produced as a source of food,
feed, fiber and fuel. Grain and sweet sorghums differ in a number of important traits …

With the advent of biorefinery technologies enabling plant biomass to be processed into
biofuel, many researchers set out to study and improve candidate biomass crops. Many of …

Decarbonizing the air transportation sector remains one of the most challenging hurdles to
mitigating climate change. Lignocellulosic biomass-derived jet fuel blendstocks can …

The increasing demand for lignocellulosic biomass for the production of biofuels provides
value to vegetative plant tissue and leads to a paradigm shift for optimizing plant architecture …

Sweet sorghum [Sorghum bicolor (L.) Moench], like its close relative, sugarcane (Saccharum
spp.), has been selected to accumulate high levels of edible sugars in the stem. Sweet …

Lignin is a plant component with important implications for various agricultural disciplines. It
confers rigidity to cell walls, and is therefore associated with tolerance to abiotic and biotic …

Key message We describe the development and application of the Sorghum QTL Atlas, a
high-resolution, open-access research platform to facilitate candidate gene identification …

Bioenergy is the reduction of carbon via photosynthesis. Currently, this energy is harvested
as liquid fuel through fermentation. A major concern, however, is input cost, in particular use …
