Fig. 7: Improved production of (pro-)vitamin A by the SR8A strain via xylose and acetate co-utilization.

***P < 0.001 xylose vs glucose, ***P < 0.001 5 vs 0 g/L acetate with xylose, *P = 0.021 15 vs 10 g/L acetate with xylose. Data are presented as mean value and standard deviations of three independent biological replicates. Statistical significance of the differences was evaluated by one-way ANOVA followed by Tukey’s multiple-comparison test. Source data are provided as a Source Data file.
