Selection of efficient D-xylose fermenting segregants from the seven segregants with best performance, obtained from the triploid strain GS1.11-26/ER17. The fermentations were performed in 50 mL volume with YP medium containing 40 g/L D-xylose. The CO2 release was estimated from the weight loss during fermentation. Error bars represent standard deviation from the average in duplicate experiments.
