(0, 100, 150, 200, 250, 300, 350, 400 and 450mM) and to determine the effects
of these different salt concentrations on poly-β-hydroxybutyric acid (PHB)
production of the isolates. The results showed that the isolates showed
different salt tolerance responses. V4.6 isolate was found to be the most
affected isolate by salt concentrations. The PHB yield of the isolates (in
terms of cell dry weight) was between 0,62-27%. Increasing salt concentrations
inhibited isolate growths but stimulated PHB accumulation. PHB production by
root nodule isolates under salt–stress conditions was discussed </span>.  </span> <br /> </p>}, number={1}, publisher={Trakya University}
