FIG. 2.

Effect of NaCl on growth rates of M. barkeri 227 grown in marine medium containing 50 mM methanol as the sole carbon source and either ammonium (□) or N₂ (○) as the sole nitrogen source. The results are means of values for three separate cultures, and standard errors are indicated by bars. The cultures used as inocula were initially adapted to 0.8 M NaCl and then to the concentration used.
