ZYMOMONAS WITH IMPROVED XYLOSE UTILIZATION IN STRESS CONDITIONS FOR THE PRODUCTION OF ETHANOL

摘要

Strains of xylose utilizing Zymomonas with improved xylose utilization and ethanol production during fermentation in stress conditions were obtained using an adaptation method. The adaptation involved continuously growing xylose utilizing Zymomonas in media containing high sugars, acetic acid, ammonia, and ethanol.
