Abstract

Three apiculate yeast strains, EJ7M09, GJ5M15 and GJ15M04, isolated from mushrooms in Taiwan were found to represent a novel species of the genus . The phylogenetically closest relative of this novel species is , but the type strain of differed by 4.6 % divergence (25 substitutions; 5 gaps) in the sequence of the D1/D2 domain of the large subunit rRNA gene. This difference clearly suggests that the three strains represent a distinct species. As none of the strains that were examined in this study produced ascospores or exhibited conjugation on common sporulation medium either alone or in a pairwise mixture, this species could be considered as an anamorphic member of the genus , and a novel species, sp. nov., is proposed, with EJ7M09 ( = BCRC 23182 = CBS 11434) as the type strain.
