AI Article Synopsis
- A new yeast species strain, NYNU 2211328, was discovered in a leaf from the Baotianman Nature Reserve in Henan Province, China.
- Phylogenetic studies show it is closely related to CBS 8477, with 96.5% and 91.3% similarities in specific genetic regions.
- Unique physiological traits of this strain include its ability to use certain sugars but not others, and its inability to grow at a temperature of 30 °C, leading to the proposal of a novel species name.
Article Abstract
A novel basidiomycete yeast species represented by strain NYNU 2211328 was isolated from a leaf of collected from the Baotianman Nature Reserve in Henan Province, central China. Phylogenetic analysis of the D1/D2 domain of the large subunit rRNA gene and the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region suggested that this strain is closely related to CBS 8477, exhibiting the similarity values of 96.5% and 91.3% in the D1/D2 domain and the ITS region, respectively. Physiologically, the novel strain differs from in its ability to assimilate inulin, trehalose and d-arabinose, its inability to assimilate dl-lactate and its incapability of growth at 30 °C. Both phenotypic and phylogenetic analyses indicated that the isolated strain represents a novel species in the genus , and the name fa. sp. nov. (holotype: CICC 33584; MycoBank number: MB 855585) is proposed.
