Growth parameters of PCC9511 batch cultures shifted from LL to HL during 12 h/12 h L/D cycles.
| Growth Parameters* | Cycle 1 (LL) | Cycle 2 (HL) | Cycle 3 (HL) |
|---|---|---|---|
| μcc (d-1) | 0.43 ± 0.03 | 0.67 ± 0.01 | 0.62 ± 0.01 |
| μnb (d-1) | 0.37 ± 0.04 | 0.59 ± 0.09 | 0.58 ± 0.05 |
| TG1 (h) | 30.8 ± 3.1 | 16.7 ± 0.3 | 18.8 ± 0.2 |
| TS (h) | 4.12 ± 0.01 | 5.15 ± 0.14 | 5.53 ± 0.12 |
| TG2 (h) | 3.89 ± 0.01 | 2.85 ± 0.14 | 2.47 ± 0.12 |
| Sr | 20.8 ± 1.7 | 32.4 ± 0.4 | 29.8 ± 0.3 |
Values shown are averages (± mean deviation) of two biological replicates
* Growth rates per day calculated from: cell cycle data (μcc) or cell numbers (μnb); TG1, TS, TG2: cell cycle phase duration in hours; Sr: rate of synchronization estimated from the ratio (TS+TG2)/(TG1+TS+TG2)
