lower cellulose production by a Gluconacetobacter xylinus strain isolated from Kombucha.
The growth of this mutant was initially observed in Hestrin Schramm (HS) static and agitated
cultures but not in modified (higher nutrient) HS cultures, indicating different nutrient
conditions may play a role in the selection of the spontaneous mutant. The mutant produced
a significantly (P<. 05) lower amount of cellulose than the wild-type in HS static culture …
