Fig 2.
Growth and viability of the parental and pdr18Δ strains populations in YPD media, at 30°C or 40°C. Yeast strains' performance was compared by following OD600nm (black) and CFU ml−1 (blue) during cultivation at 30°C and 40°C. The parental strain is represented by the open symbols and the pdr18Δ by the closed symbols. Dashed lines indicate the time points at which cells were harvested for further analyses. Results are means of three independent experiments and error bars represent standard deviation.
