Initial water contact angle (a) of raw and hydrothermally pretreated corn stover (CS), Miscanthus × giganteus stalks (MS), and wheat straw (WS) at different severity factors (log R 0). Data points represent average and standard deviation from five technical replicates. Different letters indicate significant statistical difference based on ANOVA (p ≤ 0.05). Scatter plot (b) of glucose release after 72 h enzymatic hydrolysis at 10 mg/g dosage for pretreated CS, MS, and WS at three severity factors with corresponding initial water contact angle prior to hydrolysis. The strength of linear relationship between paired data is indicated by Pearson’s correlation coefficient (R) and t test of the regression slope (significant if p < 0.05)
