Naumovozyma baii sp. nov., an ascomycetous yeast species isolated from rotten wood in a tropical forest

Int J Syst Evol Microbiol. 2012 Dec;62(Pt 12):3095-3098. doi: 10.1099/ijs.0.044909-0. Epub 2012 Aug 3.

Abstract

Two strains isolated from rotten wood were included in the Saccharomyces group based on morphological characteristics. However, rRNA gene sequence analyses (including the 18S rRNA gene, 26S rRNA gene D1/D2 domain and internal transcribed spacer region) indicated that these two strains represent a novel species of Naumovozyma, for which the name Naumovozyma baii sp. nov. is proposed (type strain: BW 22(T) = CGMCC 2.04520(T) = CBS 12642(T)). The MycoBank number of the new species is MB800484.
