Eight hybrid populations (30 to 96 F1s) developed by crossing lowland cultivars, Alamo and Kanlow, were evaluated in two environments in Tennessee using a randomized complete block design with two replications per location in 2020 and 2021. The hybrid populations exhibited significant variation for all the studied traits (<i>p</i> ≤ 0.05). A linkage map including 17,251 single nucleotide polymorphisms (SNPs) generated through genotype-by-sequencing was used for the QTL mapping. The QTL analyses were performed on the traits across populations in each and across environments (years and locations) and detected a total of 74 significant QTL peaks with the logarithm of odds (LOD) scores ranging from 3.0 to 6.9. Phenotypic variability explained (PVE) by QTL varied from 2.1% to 7.4%. Ten QTL for predicted ethanol yield were identified on chromosomes 4N, 5K, 5N, 8K, 8N, and 9N, respectively, in which the major QTL resided on chromosome 5N with the highest PVE value (7.4%). Four cellulose and three hemicellulose QTL were identified on chromosomes 1K, 1N, 2N, 5K, 5N, 7K, and 8N, with PVE ranging from 2.1% to 5.8%.

Research has found significant differences in willow performance through different management methods, soil properties and environmental interactions (GxE), when applied locally. However, global analysis of these interactions remains a challenge. We present a global SRC willow dataset to facilitate researchers and growers with a resource not available to date to help in closing the gap between research and industry. Data has been collected through literature review and personal communications with key researchers on willow in the United Kingdom. Global annual average yield is 9 Mg Dry Matter (DM) ha⁻¹ year⁻¹ with 17 genotypes, including two types of mixtures, above the economic threshold of 10 Mg DM ha⁻¹ year⁻¹. Canada and the United States are the best and worst performers with 10.6 and 6.7 Mg DM hr⁻¹ year⁻¹, respectively.

This approach is essential to account for greenhouse gas emissions, sequestration, and avoidance throughout the supply chain and use of each fuel. Since the creation of the United States' Renewable Fuel Standard and California's Low Carbon Fuel Standard, there has been broader adoption of LCA-based regulations and incentives, accompanied by an evolution in modeling approaches. There is general agreement that regulatory impact assessment and policy design/implementation are distinct, where the latter benefits from transparent models that capture clear cause-and-effect relationships between measures taken to reduce emissions and a fuel's carbon intensity score. However, there is not yet convergence on a range of methodological choices that impact LCA outputs relevant for fuels and a host of other emerging applications, such as private carbon markets. Numerous recent studies have explored existing LCA methods and developed new approaches for applications where consensus has not yet been reached, such as soil organic carbon accounting, forest biomass carbon accounting, crediting of avoided emissions, and defining wastes. Simultaneously, new and revised LCA-based biofuel policies have leveraged these approaches, and in some cases, used fit-for-purpose solutions. This article reviews the state of policy-relevant biofuel LCA methods and tools, compares and contrasts established and emerging approaches within current policies at the state, federal, and international levels, and identifies key challenges that require further research and coordination to establish best practices. These issues have implications beyond biofuel policies, extending to power generation and carbon dioxide removal crediting.</p>","PeriodicalId":55126,"journal":{"name":"Global Change Biology Bioenergy","volume":"17 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-25","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gcbb.70061","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144705455","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

To be used as a fuel, biogas must be upgraded to increase its CH₄ content to over 90%. Traditional upgrading methods, such as amine scrubbing and membrane separation, are energy-intensive, costly, and environmentally burdensome. This study explores the potential of electrochemical technologies as sustainable alternatives for biogas upgrading from the aspects of energy, environment, economics, and engineering. Recent advances in promising electrochemical approaches including pretreatment, microbial conversion enhancement, CO₂ capture, CO₂ reduction reactions, and methanation are first reviewed. The performance of these approaches is then systematically compared based on operational characteristics and efficiency metrics. Our findings indicate that microbial and bioelectrochemical systems can achieve CH₄ purities over 92%. Also, electrochemical technologies offer &gt; 99.9% hydrogen sulfide removal (desulfurization). State-of-the-art electrochemical CO₂ reduction technologies demonstrate Faradaic efficiencies generally 50%–80%, with the selectivity of CH₄ up to 99.7%. From the environmental aspect, integrating renewable electricity into microbial, electrochemical (or -based), and bioelectrochemical upgrading systems yields roughly 10%–74% life-cycle GHG reductions relative to conventional fossil-energy pathways, with certain renewable power-to-methane configurations achieving net-negative emissions. Lastly, this study identifies several priority research directions, such as (1) advanced catalyst and electrode development, (2) system integrations with air pollutant control facilities, (3) life-cycle environmental and techno-economic assessment, and (4) digestate valorization for multiple product ecosystems. Electrochemical approaches offer a promising path toward clean, efficient, and decentralized biogas utilization, contributing to global decarbonization and energy transition goals toward a circular bioeconomy.</p>","PeriodicalId":55126,"journal":{"name":"Global Change Biology Bioenergy","volume":"17 8","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-07-22","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gcbb.70063","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144672700","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Perennial biomass crops are particularly well suited for this goal because of their high yields, low input requirements, and potential to increase soil carbon (C). However, it is unclear how much C is allocated into belowground pools by perennial bioenergy crops and whether the belowground benefits vary with nitrogen (N) fertilizer inputs. Using in situ ¹³C pulse-chase labeling, we tested whether the sterile perennial grass <i>Miscanthus</i> × <i>giganteus</i> (miscanthus) or annual maize transfers more photosynthetic C to belowground pools. The experiment took place at two sites in Central and Northwest (NW) Iowa with different management histories and two nitrogen (N) fertilizer rates (0 and 224 kg N ha⁻¹ year⁻¹) to determine if the fate of plant-derived soil C depends on soil fertility and crop type (perennial or annual). Maize allocated a greater percentage of total new ¹³C to roots than miscanthus, but miscanthus had greater new ¹³C in total and belowground plant biomass. We found strong interactions between site and most soil measurements—including new ¹³C in mineral and particulate soil organic matter (SOM) pools—which appears to be driven by differences in historical fertilizer management. The NW Iowa site, with a history of manure inputs, had greater plant-available nutrients (phosphorus, potassium, and ammonium) in soils, and resulted in less ¹³C from miscanthus in SOM pools compared to maize (approximately 64% less in POM and 70% less in MAOM). In more nutrient-limited soils (Central site), miscanthus transferred 4.5 times more ¹³C than maize to the more stable mineral-associated SOM pool.

We combined biometric, ground-based and eddy covariance methods to investigate the impact of sugarcane expansion across subtropical Florida on the carbon (C) budget over a 3-year rotation. With 2.3- and 5.1-fold increase in productivity over IMP and SN pastures, sugarcane displayed a C use efficiency (CUE; i.e., fraction of gross C uptake allocated to plant growth) of 0.59, well above that of pastures (0.31–0.23). Sugarcane also had greater C allocation to aboveground productivity and hence, harvestable biomass relative to IMP and SN. Cane heterotrophic respiration over the 3-year rotation (903 ± 335 gC m⁻² year⁻¹) was 1% and 14% higher than IMP and SN pastures, respectively. These soil C losses responded largely to disturbance over the first year after conversion (1510 ± 227 gC m⁻² year⁻¹) but declined in subsequent years to an average 599 ± 90 gC m⁻² year⁻¹—well below those of IMP (933 ± 140 gC m⁻² year⁻¹) and SN (759 ± 114 gC m⁻² year⁻¹) pastures—despite a significant 40%–61% increase in soil C inputs. Soil C inputs, however, shifted from root-dominated in pastures to litter-dominated in sugarcane, with only 5% C allocation to roots. Reduced decomposition rates in sugarcane were likely driven by changes in the recalcitrance and distribution rather than the size of the newly incorporated soil C pool. As a result, we observed a rapid shift in the net ecosystem C balance (NECB) of sugarcane from a large source immediately following conversion to approaching the net C losses of IMP pastures only 2 years after conversion. The environmental cost of converting pasture to sugarcane underscores the importance of implementing management practices to harness the soil C storage potential of sugarcane in advancing a sustainable bioeconomy in Southeastern United States.</p>","PeriodicalId":55126,"journal":{"name":"Global Change Biology Bioenergy","volume":"17 7","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":5.9,"publicationDate":"2025-06-26","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"https://onlinelibrary.wiley.com/doi/epdf/10.1111/gcbb.70058","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"144482286","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":3,"RegionCategory":"工程技术","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"OA","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Although these systems deliver environmental benefits, such as carbon sequestration and water purification, their large-scale implementation may lead to landscape homogenization. Conversely, strategically deployed biomass systems can enhance local land use diversity, support biodiversity, and generate mixed income opportunities for farmers. In this study, we present a harmonized analysis of European biomass production systems using spatial data from over 426,783 fields and stands, covering 2,140,568 ha across 17 countries. By integrating empirical data with landscape metrics, we assess the spatial distribution, scale, and land use context of diverse biomass systems ranging from short-rotation plantations to energy grasses. Our results show that depending on their location, biomass production systems have the potential to enhance local land use diversity and support multifunctional landscapes that mitigate the risks associated with large-scale monocultures.
