Fig. 1

Growth test in LC medium with 10 g/L cellobiose. Ethanol was added to the culture at a rate of 5 g/L/h. The blue dashed line indicates the measured ethanol concentration in the culture with ethanol addition. The measured ethanol concentration in the culture without ethanol addition is not shown in the figure, since the final ethanol titer for that culture was only 1.2 g/L. The data presented here are a representative example of biological triplicates. Similar trends were found in all replicates
