[Characteristics of three species of genus Debaryomyces Lodder & Kreger-van Rij].

A taxonomic state of the collection strains of three marketable species of genus Debaryomyses has been specified. Sources of their isolation have been analyzed and a list of econiches where the yeast occur has been supplemented. The properties have been found which are recommended to be used as additional for differentiation of D. hansenii, D. polymorphus, D. pseudopolymorphus species (that was the ability to assimilate nitrites, growth in the medium with 24 % of NaCl, synthesis of riboflavin, availability of jelatinase activity).
