De novo transcriptome assembly of next-generation sequencing information has become a powerful tool for the study of non-model species. Transcriptomes generated by this method can have high variability due to endless combinations of user-defined variables and programs available for assembly. Many methods have been developed for evaluating the quality of these assemblies. Here, raw sequencing information for Green ash (Fraxinus pennsylvanica Marshall) that was previously published has been re-evaluated. An updated assembly has been developed by including additional sequencing information not used for the currently accepted transcriptome in combination with more stringent trimming parameters. Input reads were assembled with Trinity and Abyss assembly programs. The resulting Trinity assembly has a 7.3-fold increase in genomic breadth of coverage, a 2.4-fold increase in predicted complete open reading frames, an increased L50 value, and increased Benchmarking Universal Single-Copy Ortholog completeness compared to the earlier published transcriptome. This updated transcriptome can be leveraged to help fight the rapid decline of green ash due to pathogens.

Although the gluten-free market is expanding and offers a variety of products, there are still some deficiencies in the nutritional and sensory quality of these products. Therefore, this study explores the bioaccessibility of phenolic compounds, nutritional quality, and textural properties of gluten-free muffins enriched with artichoke leaves and green lentil protein (GLP) isolate, two novel ingredients introduced together for the first time in this context. The incorporation of GLP isolate aims to enhance the protein content, while artichoke leaves are evaluated for its potential to improve phenolic content and antioxidant activity.

Jewel beetles pose significant threats to forestry, and effective traps are needed to monitor and manage them. Green traps often catch more beetles, but purple traps catch a greater proportion of females. Understanding the function and mechanism of this behavior can provide a rationale for trap optimization.

Green coal and lubricant via hydrogen-free hydrothermal liquefaction of biomass.

Biocrude derived from biomass via hydrothermal liquefaction (HTL) is a sustainable substitute for petroleum to obtain energy and biochemicals. Upgrading biocrude inevitably faces the trade-off between consuming large amounts of hydrogen via hydrotreating and high yield of solid residue without additional hydrogen. In this work, we report a non-hydrogenated refinery paradigm for nearly complete valorization (~90%), via co-generating green coal and bio-lubricant.
