Table 3 Effect of inhibitors derived from lignocellulose degradation on the growth of the MnP-producing oleaginous yeasts comprising NYC-1 consortium

From: Wood-feeding termite gut symbionts as an obscure yet promising source of novel manganese peroxidase-producing oleaginous yeasts intended for azo dye decolorization and biodiesel production
