Fig. 2
Fermentation performance of the W105F strain in CWP with different dilutions and different inoculum sizes. Fermentation time course data from pH-controlled bioreactor experiments are represented as concentration time series of sugars and ethanol. Data points represent concentrations of a single replicate or the average of two replicates (as reported in Table 2), with error bars corresponding to the standard deviation. Panels correspond to fermentations in CWP with different dilutions: CWP1:2 (a), CWP2:3 (b) and CWP3:4 (c) for the standard bacterial inoculum size (1:5 ratio). For the CWP2:3 condition, data are shown for the standard inoculum size and for the 1:10 and 1:50 ratios (b). The number in brackets in the legend indicates the inoculum size
