Growth rate characterization of evolution populations on nonevolutionary substrates. Columns indicate individual populations grouped by the day of evolution and evolution substrate used. Rows show the substrate used for growth rate testing. Measurements for each population were compared with the growth rate of the wild-type strain and the log2 ratio is reported to compare growth rates. An asterisk (*) indicates cases where the evolved population exhibited slow, almost imperceptible growth relative to the wild-type strain.
