Fig. 6From: Xylanase production by Thermobacillus xylanilyticus is impaired by population diversification but can be mitigated based on the management of cheating behavior Characterization of the two subpopulations of T. xylanilyticus. Growth and flow cytometry profiles of generation 0 cultivations before cell sorting (A). The red boxes on the FSC-SSC dotplot represent the gates used for discriminating the two subpopulations; growth profiles of the two subpopulations (B); xylanase activities for the two subpopulations at different growth phases (C). The blue lines and bars represent the high subpopulation, and the orange ones represent the low subpopulationBack to article page
