Abstract

Two independent surveys of yeasts associated with different bromeliads in different Brazilian regions led to the proposal of a novel yeast species, sp. nov., belonging to the Tremellales clade (Agaricomycotina, Basidiomycota). Analysis of the sequences in the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region and D1/D2 domain of the LSU rRNA gene suggested affinity to a phylogenetic lineage that includes and . Six isolates of the novel species were obtained from different bromeliads and regions in Brazil. Sequence analysis of the D1/D2 domains of the large subunit of the rRNA gene showed that the novel species differs from . and by 85 and 64 nt substitutions, respectively and by more than 75 nt substitutions in the ITS region. Phenotypically, sp. nov. can be distinguished from both species based on the assimilation of -erythritol, which was negative for sp. nov. but positive for the others, assimilation of -glucosamine, which was positive for sp. nov. but negative for and of -sorbose, which was negative for sp. nov. but positive for . The novel species sp. nov. is proposed to accommodate these isolates. The type strain of sp. nov. is UFMG-CM-Y379 (BRO443; ex-type CBS 13870).
