A–C: different superscript capital letters in the same column for the same sugar/organic acid at different cultivation time for each tested isolated denote differences (p ≤ 0.05), based on Tukey’s test; a–c: different superscript small letters in the same row and different measured sugars/organic acids for each isolate among media with glucose, FOS and XCJ denote difference, based on Tukey’s test (p ≤ 0.05)
