Diauxic growth in Azotobacter vinelandii [PDF]
Azotobacter vinelandii exhibited diauxie when grown in a medium containing both acetate and glucose as carbon sources. Acetate was used as the primary carbon source during the acetate-glucose diauxie. Uptake of acetate was constitutively expressed during both diauxic phases of growth. Induction of the glucose uptake system was inhibited in the presence
