A1 Begerow, D.YR 2012 T1 Leucosporidium drummii sp. nov., a member of the Microbotryomycetes isolated from soil JF International Journal of Systematic and Evolutionary Microbiology, VO 62 IS Pt_3 SP 728 OP 734 DO https://doi.org/10.1099/ijs.0.027102-0 PB Microbiology Society, SN 1466-5034, AB Two strains of a novel teleomorphic basidiomycete were isolated from grassland soil. Standard phenotypic tests and phylogenetic analyses of 26S rRNA gene (D1/D2 domains) and ITS region sequences showed that the species belongs to the core group of the genus Leucosporidium. A novel species, Leucosporidium drummii sp. nov., is proposed to accommodate the two strains, with SEG-3-2-AY220T ( = CBS 11562T = MUCL 52878T) as the type strain. In addition, phylogenetic analysis revealed great genetic variability in the Leucosporidium scottii complex., UL https://www.microbiologyresearch.org/content/journal/ijsem/10.1099/ijs.0.027102-0
