Soil and root carbon storage is key to climate benefits of bioenergy crops

Most bioenergy feedstock studies focus on maximizing aboveground biomass production. Cropland with fertile soils can produce high aboveground biomass yields but its diversion to bioenergy causes greenhouse gas emissions from direct and indirect land use changes. Here, we analyze three grassland expe...
