  1. NDTD none detected
  2. aBY4741, BY4741 host strain; M-Y, deletion mutant of YAP1; M-S, deletion mutant of STB5; SIY, STB5 overexpressed in deletion mutant of YAP1; YIS, YAP1 overexpressed in deletion mutant of STB5
  3. bCalculations based on the results within the first 16 h of fermentation. Q is the volumetric ethanol productivity, and q is the specific ethanol productivity
  4. c Y E/G is the ethanol yield on the initial amount of fermentable sugar (glucose). The calculations are based on the maximum ethanol concentrations obtained within 136 h of fermentation
  5. dN/A not applicable; no inhibitor was added to the culture medium
