Improved ethanol production by a xylose-fermenting recombinant yeast strain constructed through a modified genome shuffling method
<p>Abstract</p> <p>Background</p> <p>Xylose is the second most abundant carbohydrate in the lignocellulosic biomass hydrolysate. The fermentation of xylose is essential for the bioconversion of lignocelluloses to fuels and chemicals. However the wild-type strains of <...
