Figure 2

Batch culture profiles after hardening with xylose as carbon source. Batch culture profiles for the recombinant xylose-utilising S. cerevisiae strains D5A+ (parental strain, A and B), TMB3400 (C and D) and D5A+H (hardened strain, E and F) in a growth medium supplemented with 50% (v/v) pretreatment liquor from steam-pretreated triticale and 20 g xylose/L in shake flask cultures. Figure symbols left-hand column: biomass (circles), ethanol (diamonds), xylose (triangles). Figure symbols right-hand column: acetic acid (squares), formic acid (circles), HMF (diamonds) and furfural (crosses). Error bars represent standard deviations from duplicate experiments.
