Effect of the distinct combination of intracellular β-glucosidase gene deletion sets on production of malic acid. Physiological characterizations of the strains JG412Δbgl2Δbgl3 and JG412Δbgl1Δbgl2Δbgl3 were determined when grown on cellobiose (a–c) and Avicel (d–f) in shaking flask. a, e Time-course of malate production. b, f Dry weights of mycelia in the culture of these strains grown on cellobiose and Avicel for 8 days. c, g Protein concentration in the supernatant after 4 days of culture. d, h Assay of ATP concentration in strains grown on cellobiose and Avicel for 2 days, respectively
