Rhodotorula rosulata sp. nov., Rhodotorula silvestris sp. nov. and Rhodotorula straminea sp. nov., novel myo-inositol-assimilating yeast species in the Microbotryomycetes Golubev, Wladyslav I. and Scorzetti, Gloria,, 60, 2501-2506 (2010), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.016303-0, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= Three novel species are described as Rhodotorula rosulata sp. nov. (type strain VKM Y-2962T =CBS 10977T), Rhodotorula silvestris sp. nov. (type strain VKM Y-2971T =CBS 11420T) and Rhodotorula straminea sp. nov. (type strain VKM Y-2964T =CBS 10976T) based on the study of eight isolates from needle litter. The new species, phylogenetically located within the Microbotryomycetes, are related to glucuronate-assimilating species of the genus Rhodotorula. Sequencing of the D1/D2 domains of the LSU rDNA gene and the internal transcribed spacer (ITS) region, as well as physiological characterization, revealed their distinct taxonomic positions., language=, type=
