Figure 2. Resin degradation by Pseudomonas abietaniphila strain PS and the fungal strains isolated from environmental resin.
A) Bacterial and total dry weight of RM cultures of strain PS and evolution of the estimated amount of resin in the medium. B) Variation in resin content in RM cultures of different fungi isolated from resin, estimated from optical density of the medium (OD600), as described in Methods S1. C) Resin colloid removal by fungal isolates grown for 7 days compared to a non inoculated RM control (from left to right, control, F9, F8, and F1 cultures).
