Ušli smo u posljednji tjedan našeg BIOMAC otvorenog poziva i želimo vam skrenuti pozornost na ovu jedinstvenu priliku besplatnog korištenja naše platforme za testiranje otvorenih inovacija bionanomaterijala.
Miscanthus is a perennial wild grass that is of global importance for paper production, roofing, horticultural plantings, and an emerging highly productive temperate biomass crop.
In this study is reported a chromosome-scale assembly of the paleotetraploid M. sinensis genome, providing a resource for Miscanthus that links its chromosomes to the related diploid Sorghum and complex polyploid sugarcanes. The asymmetric distribution of transposons across the two homoeologous subgenomes proves Miscanthus paleo-
Switching to biofuel would reduce the amount of heat-trapping gas produced by American planes.
As the world’s energy demand continues to grow, the search for renewable and sustainable energy sources has become increasingly important. One promising source is Miscanthus Giganteus (MxG), a tall perennial grass that has been dubbed the “natural solar panel.”
Abandoned, marginal, and low productive agricultural lands are a significant issue in the European Union (EU). These lands can have negative impacts on the environment and contribute to rural poverty. According to the European Environment Agency, there are about 120 million hectares of abandoned and marginal lands in the EU. These lands are characterized by low productivity due to soil degradation, contamination, or physical constraints. These lands are often unsuitable for traditional agriculture and are left unused or abandoned.
Agroecosystems provide numerous ecosystem services (ESs) such as provisioning, regulating, habitat and cultural services. At the same time, the management of these agroecosystems can cause various negative impacts on the environment such as the generation of greenhouse gas emissions.
The European Commission’s Joint Research Centre (JRC) has recently published a study aimed at sparking a positive conversation about the bioeconomy and the role that biomass takes in it. This report provides scientific evidence to support European policymakers and presents a new vision for a bioeconomy that prioritizes environmental sustainability and social equality over economic growth. The JRC underlined that the problems we confront in implementing the ‘Green Deal’ transformation are unprecedented, and its objective is to establish a foundation for a future sustainable society.
Miscanthus giganteus is a high-yielding perennial grass that has gained attention in recent years as a potential biomass crop for industrial cultivation in Europe. Here are ten advantages of growing this crop:
Biomass energy production has become an increasingly important aspect of the global effort to transition to more sustainable and renewable forms of energy. Among the various sources of biomass, Miscanthus x giganteus, also known as giant miscanthus, has emerged as one of the most promising and efficient options. In this article, we will explore why Miscanthus x giganteus is considered the best way to produce biomass.
DEFRA recently published an update on how government will pay for land-based environmental and climate goods and services under its Environmental Land Management (ELM) schemes. The update, published 26th January 2023, currently applying only to England, specified that perennial biomass crops such as Miscanthus, reed canary grass and tree species grown as short-rotation coppice are all included under the ‘permanent crops’ category within the ELM schemes.
