Tóm tắt

In a taxonomic study of yeasts isolated from decaying plant materials submerged in water of mangrove forests in Thailand, three strains isolated from tree bark (EM33T), a fallen leaf (EM40T) and a detached branch (SM56T) were found to represent three novel yeast species. On the basis of morphological, biochemical, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics, the sequence analysis of the D1/D2 domain of the large subunit (LSU) rRNA gene, and the phylogenetic analysis, the three strains were assigned as three novel Candida species. They were named as Candida chanthaburiensis sp. nov. (type strain EM33T = BCC 23057T = NBRC 102176T = CBS 10926T), Candida kungkrabaensis sp. nov. (type strain EM40T = BCC 23060T = NBRC 102179T = CBS 10927T), and Candida suratensis sp. nov. (type strain SM56T = BCC 25961T = NBRC 103858T = CBS 10928T).
