Alterations in PGL species levels of C. auris CBS10913T and NCCPF_470033 strains. (A), Total levels of odd-chain fatty acyl containing PGLs and saturated fatty acyl containing PGLs. (B), The degree of unsaturation represented as unsaturation index. The unsaturation index was calculated using the following formula: UI = [(1 × % monoene-PGL) + (2 × % diene-PGL) + (3 × % triene-PGL) + (4 × % tetraene-PGL) + (5 × % pentaene-PGL) + (6 × % hexaene-PGL)]/100. (C), Ratio of unsaturated and saturated PGLs. (D), Ratios of select PC and PE species levels. Mean ± SEM are shown (n = 3). The P-values of < 0.05, <0.01 and < 0.001 are represented by *, ** and ***, respectively.
