In these studies, the performance of AFEX and DA pretreatments was compared for different types of feedstock (corn stover (CS), poplar and switchgrass) [ 6, 9, 10].
We attribute these differences to the different types of biomass used (corn stover vs. switchgrass), types of IL ([C2mim]Cl vs. C4mim]Cl), and the scale of the biomass loading (26.7 mg g corn stover + 502 mg IL vs. 0.5 g SG + 10 g IL), all of which are essential factors that affect the final yields.
Different types of biomass, including cornstalks, corn fiber, and sugarcane, can be used to fuel the fermentation.
In addition, the interaction between P. arrhenomanes and corn has been analyzed [ 6], and demonstrated that P. arrhenomanes developed two different types of hyphae during its colonization of corn roots.
Although alkaline pretreatment has been studied on different types of lignocellulosic biomass including switchgrass, corn stover, wheat straw, rice straw, and rice hulls [ 13], most of the research on alkaline pretreatment has focused on optimization of the process parameters to improve substrate digestibility [ 13- 15].
Here we present a detailed comparative analysis of the transcriptomic profiles of C1A when grown on four different types of lignocellulosic biomass (alfalfa, energy cane, corn stover, and sorghum), versus a soluble sugar monomer (glucose).
To understand the mechanistic and regulatory basis of biomass deconstruction in anaerobic fungi, we analyzed the transcriptomic profiles of C1A when grown on four different types of lignocellulosic biomass (alfalfa, energy cane, corn stover, and sorghum) versus a soluble sugar monomer (glucose).
The seedcorn maggot (D. platura) feeds on the seeds and seedlings of a variety of crops, including corn (maize), peas, and different types of beans.
An experiment was designed to study the effect of corn physical structure and different types of dietary fibre on pig gut microbiota during growing.
