1

Mean of duplicate. Numbers with different letters within a same column differ at p≤0.05 level.

2

The total nitrogen uptake corresponds to the sum of the nitrogen from the amino acids and ammonium phosphate.

3

The residual sugar data correspond to the mean differences between the initial and residual concentration of the fermentable sugars.

4

The S/E yield was calculated based on the amounts of residual sugar and ethanol production under these conditions.

5

The maximum velocity was obtained from the slope of the exponential phase of the growth curves (Biomass vs Time).
