Lignocellulosic biomass has been proposed as an option for reducing global dependence
on nonrenewable energy sources, such as oil. Selection and development of biomass …

Eucalypts are among the world's most widely planted trees, but the productivity of eucalypt
plantations is limited by their often-low amenability to true-to-type propagation from cuttings …

Biodiversity is severely declining in intensively managed agriculture worldwide. In response,
land-management strategies for biodiversity conservation on farmland are in debate, namely …

Continuously increasing energy requirements coupled with environmental pollution have
established pressure to utilise lignocellulosic biomass for energy production. Acacia …

Genomic selection (GS) can substantially reduce breeding cycle times in forest trees
compared to traditional breeding cycles. Practical implementation of GS in tree breeding …

Next generation Sequencing (NGS) provides a powerful tool for discovery of domestication
genes in crop plants and their wild relatives. The accelerated domestication of new plant …

The demand for bio-jet fuels to reduce carbon emissions is increasing substantially in the
aviation sector, while the scarcity of high-density jet fuel components limits the use of bio-jet …

The increasing demand for wood, fiber, and pulp, coupled with efforts to mitigate
greenhouse gas emissions, has placed immense importance on the development of forest …

This work assessed the economics and carbon footprint of alcohol (ethanol vs. n-butanol)-to-
jet fuel production using eucalyptus for feedstock. Considering a risk-mitigating strategy of …

Background In order to rapidly and efficiently screen potential biofuel feedstock candidates
for quintessential traits, robust high-throughput analytical techniques must be developed …
