The relationship analysis of the reorganized G. oxydans–K. vulgare consortium. a Sorbose metabolism in G. oxydans, red words indicate the genes involved in sorbose metabolism in G. oxydans; b effect of engineered strains on l-sorbose assimilation in the flasks; c chromatograms from HPLC analysis of d-sorbitol assimilation catalyzed by engineered H2, where no byproduct can be detected with the sorbose assimilation; d effect of engineered strain on l-sorbose assimilation in the jar fermentors; e effect of engineered G. oxydans strains on 2-KGA accumulation in the synthetic consortium; f K. vulgare density in co- and mono-culture; g G. oxydans and engineered H2 density in co- and mono-culture; h a mutualistic G. oxydans–K. vulgare consortium for production of 2-KGA
