Who likes it hot? A global analysis of the climatic, ecological, and evolutionary determinants of warming tolerance in ants

Global Change Biology, 18(2), 448–456.

By: S. Diamond n, D. Sorger n, J. Hulcr n, S. Pelini*, I. Toro*, C. Hirsch n, E. Oberg*, R. Dunn n

Sodium hydroxide pretreatment of genetically modified switchgrass for improved enzymatic release of sugars

Bioresource Technology, 110, 364–370.

By: Z. Wang n, R. Li n, J. Xu n, J. Marita*, R. Hatfield*, R. Qu n, J. Cheng n

author keywords: Genetic modification; Lignin; Switchgrass; Sodium hydroxide pretreatment; Sugar
