C4–C10 Fatty acid production in a ∆gpd2 strain. A Production of butyric acid (light grey) by VSY0 and GDY15 expressing the reverse β-oxidation pathway (pACB007) or with the empty vector (EV) after 75 h of fermentation in buffered synthetic medium (SM) without uracil. B Production of hexanoic (white), octanoic (black) and decanoic acid (dark grey) by VSY0 and GDY15 expressing the reverse β-oxidation pathway (pACB007) or with the empty vector (EV) after 75 h of fermentation in buffered synthetic medium (SM) without uracil. Error bars represent the standard deviation between four independent replicates
