A Fast and Simple Qualitative Method for Screening Oleaginous Yeasts on Agar

Figure 5

Screening of oleaginous white yeasts on different carbon sources: glucose, glycerol, and lignocellulosic hydrolysate. The yeasts were classified as follows: GLP, good lipid producer; MLP, moderate lipid producer; PLP, poor lipid producer; and NO, non-oleaginous. A total of 372 (124×3) plates (size 35×10 mm) were used in this experiment.
