From: Isolation, molecular identification of lipid-producing Rhodotorula diobovata: optimization of lipid accumulation for biodiesel production

Inoculum volume (%)	Lipid yield (g/L)*	Dry biomass (g/L)*	Lipid content (%)*
5	5.09^a	11.84^a	42.99^a
10	4.01^b	11.17^b	35.89^b
15	3.08^c	10.06^d	30.62 ^c
20	2.97^d	10.27^c	28.92^d
