a

All strains were grown under identical conditions for 4 to 6 d, at 40 to 60 µmol photons m−2 s−1 white light, and a 14/10-h light/dark cycle.

b,c

Significantly different means (Student’s t test, P < 0.0001).

d

Significantly different means (ANOVA, P < 0.0001).

e

Cells were first grown for 5 d in TAP, followed by transfer to NMM for 2 d.
