Special Issue Description

Petroleum dependence is a problem, but agricultural production of biofuels can partially balance it while reducing net, non-renewable carbon dioxide emissions. The fastest, most effective, and frequently the only method for converting plants into biofuel feedstocks is biotechnology. Plants have not been tamed for the production of modern biofuels. The production of biobutanol and biodiesel from first-generation biofuel feedstock sources like sugarcane and cereal grains directly competes with the need for global food security. Gene suppression can stop the atmospheric leak of methyl bromide, which is caused by the extensive use of oilseed rape. Straw wastes or cultivated lignocellulosic crops will be used to make second-generation bioethanol biofuels. These could be largely replaced by transgenically lowering or changing the quantity of lignin and upregulating cellulose production in place of the current processes that require heat and acid to remove lignin. Transgene-based silicon content modulation may be used to lower non-precipitable silicon emissions from burning. Before substantial cultivation, it is best to transgenically remove very poisonous protein components from the shrubby Jatropha and castor bean meal, as well as cancer-promoting diterpenes from the oils and allergens from the pollen. To deal with “weeds,” light penetration, photoinhibition, carbon assimilation, etcAlgae and cyanobacteria for third-generation biodiesel require transgenic alteration. We are investigating the potential of harnessing photosynthetic mechanisms to produce fourth-generation biohydrogen and bioelectricity. When undomesticated biofuel crops are cultivated, it appears that no health or environmental impact studies are necessary, yet illogically strict standards apply if they are transgenically modified to be less harmful and more effective than biofuel crops.

Manuscript Submission information

Manuscripts should be submitted online via the manuscript Engine. Once you register on APID, click here to go to the submission form. Manuscripts can be submitted until the deadline.
All submissions that pass pre-check are peer-reviewed. Accepted papers will be published continuously in the journal (as soon as accepted) and will be listed together on the special issue website. Research articles, review articles as well as short communications are invited. For planned papers, a title and short abstract (about 100 words) can be sent to the email address:[email protected] for announcement on this website.
Submitted manuscripts should not have been published previously, nor be under consideration for publication elsewhere (except conference proceedings papers). All manuscripts are thoroughly refereed through a Double-blind peer-review process. A guide for authors and other relevant information for the submission of manuscripts is available on the Instructions for Authors page.
