Microtiter plate growth assays with SD media in the presence of furfural (A, C) or HMF (B, D). Panels (A, B) show growth of the diploid parent strain YB-2625. Panels (C, D) show growth of the haploid strain YRH1946. Assays were performed at 30 °C with shaking every 60 s for 30 s. Error bars represent the standard deviation of a minimum of three biological replicates
