Jerusalem artichoke (Helianthus tuberosus L.) is emerging as one of the energy plants considered for biofuel production. Alkali and alkali-involved pretreatment methods have been widely used bioconversion cellulosic materials due to their high sugar yield low inhibitor release. However, recovery treatment wastewater (black liquor) poorly studied. Here, we present a novel two-stage process desig...

Improving ecological connectivity (EC) within landscapes by establishing corridors and networks has been proposed to counteract the negative effects of habitat fragmentation climate change on biodiversity. To be functional, should kept free opportunistic invasive species that can disrupt EC between protected areas cause biodiversity loss. The present study focused perennial herbaceous whose occ...

this research was assigned to study the top crop yield potential and nutritive value of jerusalem artichoke (helianthus tuberosus), using a completely randomized designed with three treatments and four replications. the forage was cut at three growing stages where plant high, fresh and dry forage yield and leave/steam ratio were recorded. first and second cut were made when the plant heights we...

Energy crops are dedicated cultures directed for biofuels, electricity, and heat production. Due to their tolerance contaminated lands, they can alleviate remediate land pollution by the disposal of toxic elements polymetallic agents. Moreover, these suitable be exploited in marginal soils (e.g., saline), and, therefore, risk land-use conflicts due competition food, feed, fuel is reduced, contr...
