Effect of low K+ and Cl− concentrations on growth of sul1, gef1, and vma1 strains of S. cerevisiae. Cells from each strain were suspended at initial A590 of 0.1 and incubated aerobically at 30°C with rotary shaking for 24 h. The medium was derived from LCAPG, with increasing amounts of Cl− added as arginine Cl−. The initial concentrations of Cl− in the media were ∼0.005, 0.035, 0.10, 0.30, 1.0, and 3.0 mM (left to right) in each group of six bars. The initial concentrations of K+ (added as KH2PO4) were 0.1, 0.3, 1.0, and 3.0 mM.
