Growth performances of P. aurescens TC1 in dependence on the availability of different carbon and nitrogen sources. (A) Predicted and observed P. aurescens TC1 growth in mineral minimal media supplemented with Atrazine or its degradation intermediates. ATZ atrazine, NH4, GLU glucose, ETH ethylamine, ISO isopropylamine, CTRL control. Measurements are normalized by dividing in maximal value. Values represent biomass rate (h−1, predicted) and OD measurement (observed). (B) Surface plot rendering P. aurescens TC1 growth (biomass) in dependence on atrazine, glucose and NH4 availability. Color scale is indicative of biomass (Z-axis).
