Legend: X = maximum biomass; T = time of maximum EPS production; P = EPS production; YP/S = yield (product/substrate); YP/X = yield (product/biomass); R= productivity at time of maximum EPS production. Data are the means of three independent experiments ± SD. Values in same column followed by the same superscript letters are not significantly different (P<0.01) by the Tukey test.
