Fig. 5From: Using osmotic stress to stabilize mannitol production in Synechocystis sp. PCC6803Maximum growth rate for mutants under different salt concentration and mannitol production changed from mannitol producer under specific salt pressures in Multi-cultivator. a Growth rate of WT, ΔGGPS and ΔCS as a function of salt concentration. Symbols: open triangles, WT; open squares, ΔGGPS; open circles, ΔCS. Values represent the average of biological duplicates (error bars represent standard deviation). b Mannitol production of WT_M and ΔCS_M with and without salt stress in a Multi-cultivator. Symbols: crosses, WT_M grown in the presence of 420 mM NaCl; triangles, WT_M grown without added salt; bars, ΔCS_M grown without added salt; squares, ΔCS_M grown in the presence of 200 mM NaCl. Values represent the average of at least three biological replicates (error bars represent standard deviation)Back to article page
