Biomass constitutes an appealing alternative to fossil resources for the production of
materials and energy. The abundance and attractiveness of vegetal biomass come along …

The growing demand for biofuels such as bioethanol has led to the need for identifying
alternative feedstock instead of conventional substrates like molasses, etc. Lignocellulosic …

Second-generation ethanol (2G ethanol) has emerged as a promising alternative to fossil
fuels owing to the usage of lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) as feedstock. LCB is mainly …

Fungal strain engineering is commonly used in many areas of biotechnology, including the
production of plant biomass degrading enzymes. Its aim varies from the production of …

Aspergillus fumigatus and multiple other Aspergillus species cause a wide range of lung
infections, collectively termed aspergillosis. Aspergilli are ubiquitous in environment with …

Aspergillus niger is one of the most widely used fungi to study the conversion of the
lignocellulosic feedstocks into fermentable sugars. Understanding the sugar uptake system …

Regulation of plant cell wall degradation is of utmost importance for understanding the
carbon cycle in nature, but also to improve industrial processes aimed at enzyme production …

Fungal degradation of lignocellulosic biomass requires various (hemi‐) cellulases and is an
important part of the natural carbon cycle. Although induction of cellulases has been …

Background Lignocellulose is the most abundant and renewable biomass resource on the
planet. Lignocellulose can be converted into biofuels and high-value compounds; however …
