Screening of S. cerevisiae strains in corncobs hydrolysate. Xylose consumption, xylitol and ethanol yields, ethanol concentration in corncobs hydrolysate after 96 h of fermentation in anaerobic shake flasks. KE4-22 is the parental strain of AD2-10 and KE6-12. AD1-13 is the parental strain of RHA-15, RHC-15 and RHD-15. A: xylose consumed (%), B: xylitol yield on consumed xylose (g g-1), C: ethanol yield (%, based on maximum theoretical ethanol yield on available glucose and xylose), D: ethanol concentration (g l-1) at the end of 96 h.
