From farm to fuel: Cumulative energy demand and biofuel potential of major plant protein sources
Bioresource Technology Reports. 2026. Vol. 35. Article 102977.
This study compared the cumulative energy demand of major plant-based protein sources and their theoretical biofuel recovery potential based on the starch and oil content of harvested grains and seeds. Cereals showed the lowest allocated CED for the protein fraction, 0.29–0.51 MJ/kg dry matter, but required 31.3–51.9 MJ/kg protein when expressed per unit of pure protein. In contrast, legumes and green biomass were more efficient protein sources, requiring 6.8–22.9 and 15.3 MJ/kg protein, respectively. Cereals also provided the highest ethanol recovery potential, approximately 9.8–10.2 MJ/kg dry matter. Oilseeds showed strong biodiesel potential, with sunflower seed reaching 22.23 MJ/kg dry matter and exhibiting the best net energy balance (14.42 MJ/kg) among the crops examined. Overall, cereals are most suitable for integrated food-energy systems, legumes and green biomass for protein-focused applications, and oilseeds for biodiesel-oriented biorefinery strategies.

The full complement of chromatin-associated proteins—collectively referred to as the chromatome—enables genome functioning in eukaryotes by participating in a wide range of physico-chemical processes. These include mediating diverse specific and nonspecific intermolecular interactions, catalyzing in situ synthesis and modification of macromolecules, facilitating ATP-dependent chromatin remodeling, etc. Despite considerable progress in epigenomics and the structural characterization ...

The intergenic space of plant genomes encodes many functionally important yet unexplored RNAs. The genomic loci encoding these RNAs are often considered "junk", DNA as they are frequently associated with repeat-rich regions of the genome. The latter makes the annotations of these loci and the assembly of the corresponding transcripts using short RNAseq reads particularly ...

Non-beverage alcohol was a major cause of preventable mortality of working-age males in Izhevsk (Russia) in 2003–2004. The Russian government has since taken measures to reduce availability of non-beverage alcohol. Yet, some types of non-beverage alcohol still remain available for consumers. The aim of this study was to assess the availability and sources of non-beverage ...
