FIG. 1.

Growth properties of K. marxianus and S. cerevisiae strains. (A) Strains of K. marxianus and S. cerevisiae were streaked on YPD plates and incubated at the indicated temperatures for 2 days. (B) Strains were streaked as described for panel A and grown at 28°C on MM supplemented with 2% of the indicated sugars. (C) K. marxianus DMKU3-1042 (closed symbols) and S. cerevisiae NCYC3233 (open symbols) were grown in liquid MM supplemented with 2% lactose (circles), cellobiose (squares), or glycerol (triangles) for the graph on the left and with xylitol (circles), xylose (squares), or arabinose (triangles) for the graph on the right. OD, optical density.
