Figure 3 Average cell size of 23 strains across eight
Saccharomyces species. A) Images of yeast cells at 100x magnification.
B) Violin plot showing the distribution of cell size (log cell area in
µm2). Average cell size per species is shown at the
bottom. The darker the violin plots, the smaller cells are on average.
Levels not connected by same letter are significantly different in
pairwise Tukey HSD tests after ANOVA of ‘species’ on ‘log cell area’
(F7,1710= 96.12, p < 0.001).
Figure 4 Scatter plot of strain-specific slopes from linear
regressions of cell count (obtained from flow cytometry as number of
cells per μL) on optical density (obtained from spectrophotometry as
OD600) against average strain cell size (log cell area
in µm2).
