Large-scale IL pretreatment, enzymatic hydrolysis, and bioproduct production using WT and QsuB poplar biomass. (A) Amount of glucose and xylose in hydrolysates after IL pretreatment (140 °C for 3 h) and enzymatic hydrolysis. (B) Aromatic content in hydrolysates. Titers of (C) α-bisabolene, (D) epi-isozizaene, and (E) fatty alcohols obtained after fermentation of the hydrolysates using the R. toruloides strains GB2, EIZS2, and maquFOH are shown. Error bars represent the standard error of three biological replicates from independent yeast cultures. Asterisks indicate significant differences from the WT hydrolysate using the unpaired Student's t-test (*p < 0.05; **p < 0.01)
