Two strains of an undescribed species of the genus Kluyveromyces were recovered from the rhizosphere of spruce. A description of the new species, Kluyveromyces piceae, is given and its classification on basis of ascospore shape, substrate utilization, G+C-content, DNA-DNA-reassociation data and habitat specificity is discussed.

Imidazolium ionic liquids (ILs) are promising solvents for lignocellulosic biomass (LCB) pretreatment and allow the achievement of higher ethanolic yields after enzymatic hydrolysis and ethanolic fermentation. However, residual ILs entrapped in pretreated biomass are often toxic for fermentative microorganisms, but interaction mechanisms between ILs and cells are still unknown. Here we studied the effects of 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium acetate [Emim][OAc] and 1-ethyl-3-methylimidazolium methylphosphonate [Emim][MeO(H)PO₂] on , a thermotolerant ethanologenic yeast.

Analysis of the coenzyme Q system and the monosaccharide pattern of purified cell walls were used for species characterization in the genus Kluyveromyces. All the type strains of the genus possess coenzyme Q-6 and the mannose-glucose ('Saccharomyces type') cell wall sugar pattern. With the help of Random Amplified Polymorphic DNA-Polymerase Chain Reaction analysis 17 species were separated: K.
