Candida adriatica sp. nov. and Candida molendinolei sp. nov., two yeast species isolated from olive oil and its by-products Čadež, Neža and Raspor, Peter and Turchetti, Benedetta and Cardinali, Gianluigi and Ciafardini, Gino and Veneziani, Gianluca and Péter, Gábor,, 62, 2296-2302 (2012), doi = https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.038794-0, publicationName = Microbiology Society, issn = 1466-5026, abstract= Thirteen strains isolated from virgin olive oil or its by-products in several Mediterranean countries were found to be phenotypically and genetically divergent from currently recognized yeast species. Sequence analysis of the large subunit (LSU) rDNA D1/D2 domain and internal transcribed spacer regions/5.8S rDNA revealed that the strains represented two novel species described as Candida adriatica sp. nov. (type strain ZIM 2334T = CBS 12504T = NCAIM Y.02001T) and Candida molendinolei sp. nov. (type strain DBVPG 5508T = CBS 12508T = NCAIM Y.02000T). Phylogenetic analysis based on concatenated sequences of the small subunit rRNA gene, the D1/D2 region of the LSU rDNA and the translation elongation factor-1α gene suggested that C. adriatica sp. nov. and C. molendinolei sp. nov. should be placed within the Lindnera and Nakazawaea clades, respectively., language=, type=
