SC (S. cerevisiae), LT (L. thermotolerans), MP (M. pulcherrima), SL (S. ludwigii), TD (T. delbrueckii), ZF (Z. florentina). All data are expressed as % of the dry matter. All data are reported as the average of 2 biological replicates ± standard deviation. Values with different letters (a-e) within each row are significantly different (P ≤ 0.05).
