a
Growth was examined on S12 plates with the indicated compound as the sole carbon and energy source. The compound was supplied as a vapor by placing 5 μl of the volatile compound (Sigma) on the interior of the petri dish lid. The petri dish was sealed with Parafilm and incubated with the compound on the lid.
b
++, strong growth; +, weak growth; −, no growth.
