title: Exponential growth rates of species of the yeast genus Kluyveromyces.
abstract: Doubling times were measured during exponential growth of 19 strains belonging to 10 of the 17 species of the yeast genus Kluyveromyces. Growth was in shaken aerobic batch culture at 25 degrees C, in a chemically defined medium with D-glucose as sole carbon source. Doubling times were strikingly uniform, being mainly between 2 and 3.5 h.
