Relative growth efficiency with different carbon sources. The in silico growth of i SB619 varies depending on which carbon source is provided and the amount of oxygen present. The predicted efficiency of carbon incorporation into biomass is shown here as a function on the oxygen consumption. Growth rate is normalized relative to the number of carbon atoms per molecule. Oxygen consumption is normalized relative to optimal oxygen consumption for each carbon source. Trehalose, lactose, and sucrose all overlap (the trehalose line indicates all three). The legend is presented in the same order as the carbon sources appear in the figure, top to bottom.
