Optimization of the protoplast fusion conditions of Saccharomyces cerevisiae and Pichia stipitis for improvement of bioethanol production from biomass

Bioethanol production using lignocellulosic biomass has gained increased attention because of the abundant supply of this biomass. Saccharomyces cerevisiae is a commonly used microorganism for ethanol production. Nevertheless, S. cerevisiae can not ferment xylose, the second most abundant sugar in p...
