Overexpression and multi-copy integration of the mevalonate pathway genes for enhanced germacrene A biosynthesis. The increase in the copy number of TEF1p-ERG20-(PT)4P-GAS-AOX1t enhanced metabolic fluxes towards germacrene A (orange module). Overexpression and multi-copy integration of IDI1 and tHMG1 of the MVA pathway increased the titer of germacrene A (blue module). Overexpression of ACS increased the supply of acetyl-CoA and accordingly the titer of germacrene A (green module). "+" indicates pathway gene overexpression, and the corresponding number indicates the copy number of the pathway gene expression cassettes. The data represent average ± standard deviations of three biological replicates
