A: **1EtOH = 2.9 g/L, *1EtOH = 0.5 g/L; **2EtOH = 8.9 g/L, Cit = 1.9 g/L, *2EtOH = 0.2 g/L; **3EtOH = 5.3 g/L, *3EtOH = 0.5 g/L; **4EtOH = 3.4 g/L, *4EtOH = 0.2 g/L; **5EtOH = 5.1 g/L, *5EtOH = 1.2 g/L; **6EtOH = 10.0 g/L, *6EtOH = 2.1 g/L; *7Cit = 12.9 g/L; *8Cit = 11.0 g/L, Ace = 1.9 g/L; *9Cit = 13.9 g/L.

X: biomass in g/L; Glc: glucose in g/L; L: lipid in g/L; EtOH: ethanol in g/L; Cit: citric acid in g/L; Ace: acetic acid in g/L.

B: #Cit = 2.5 g/L, Ml = 9.0 g/L; ##Cit = 8.5 g/L, Ml = 6.9 g/L; ###Cit = 5.5 g/L, Ml = 4.0 g/L.

X: biomass in g/L; Glol: glycerol in g/L; L: lipid in g/L; Cit: citric acid in g/L; Ml: mannitol in g/L.

Representations: (a) When the maximum concentration of biomass (X, g/L) is achieved; (b) When the maximum quantity of lipids in dry cell weight (YL/X, % w/w) is achieved; (c) when the maximum ethanol (EtOH, g/L) is achieved (ethanol production occurred only from glucose). Each point is the mean value of two independent measurements (SE < 10%).
