In the original article, there was a mistake in Table 2 as published. SEm and CD@5% of ethanol (%) and sugars consumed (g L−1) were erroneously exchanged. The corrected Table 2 appears below. The authors apologize for this error and state that this does not change the scientific conclusions of the article in any way. The original article has been updated.
Table 2.
Growth, sugar consumption and ethanol production by S. cerevisiae LN on 2% xylose.
| Time (h) | Growth (OD600 nm) | Ethanol (%) | Sugars consumed (g L−1) | Fermentation efficiency (%) | Ethanol yield (g g−1) |
