A thorough polyphasic taxonomic study, integrating genome-based taxonomic approaches, was carried out to characterize the RB5 strain isolated from root nodules of growing on the coastal dunes of Bousfer Beach (Oran, Algeria). The 16S rRNA gene sequence analysis revealed that strain RB5 had the highest similarity to LMG27940 (98.94%) and IzPS32d (98.

Article Synopsis
  • Seven metal-resistant yeast strains were isolated from the heavily polluted Dayet Oum Ghellaz Lake in Algeria, with a focus on their resistance to heavy metals like lead and cadmium.
  • The yeast strains were identified as belonging to the species Rhodotorula mucilaginosa, Clavispora lusitaniae, and Wickerhamomyces anomalus, and showed high resistance to multiple heavy metals while also being halotolerant.
  • The study highlighted W. anomalus and R. mucilaginosa for their potential in lead removal, achieving high purification rates, suggesting these yeast strains could be valuable for bioremediation efforts of heavy metal contamination.
