Fermentation profile in 2-L fermenters for the closest parental strain, P. acidipropionici ATCC 55737, and the new strain obtained through genome shuffling, P. acidipropionici WGS7. a Fermentation profile for P. acidipropionici ATCC 55737, b fermentation profile for P. acidipropionici WGS7. Absorbance: purple; propionic acid: red; glucose: blue; succinic acid: light blue; acetic acid: black; pyruvate: green. c Specific consumption rate of sucrose (qs), specific production rate of PA (qp), and the specific growth rate (µ). d Specific consumption rates of the free amino acids presented in the PAM medium. Light blue bars: P. acidipropionici ATCC 55737. Red bars: P. acidipropionici WGS.7. The data represent the average of two biological replicates for each strain. The specific rates were calculated in the mid-exponential phase
