Abstract

Seven apiculate yeast strains that were isolated from the flowers of Pohl in Brazil are genetically, morphologically and phenotypically distinct from recognized species of the genera and . Genetic discontinuities between the novel strains and their closest relatives were found using a networking approach based on the concatenated sequences of the rRNA gene (internal transcribed spacer and D1/D2 of the LSU), and the protein-coding genes for actin and translation elongation factor-1α. Phylogenetic analysis based on the rRNA and the actin gene placed the novel species represented by the strains in close relationship to and . PCR fingerprinting with microsatellite primers confirmed the genetic heterogeneity of the novel species. The name sp. nov. is proposed, with UFMG POG a.1 ( = ZIM 2311 = CBS 13383) as the type strain; MycoBank no. MB807210. As the current description of the genus does not allow the presence of multilateral budding, an emended diagnosis of the genus Zikes is proposed.
