Pichia insulana sp. nov., a novel cactophilic yeast from the Caribbean.

International journal of systematic and evolutionary microbiology - 1 Apr 2010

Ganter Philip F, Cardinali Gianluigi, Boundy-Mills Kyria

Abstract excerpt

A novel species of ascomycetous yeast, Pichia insulana sp. nov., is described from necrotic tissue of columnar cacti on Caribbean islands. P. insulana is closely related to and phenotypically very similar to Pichia cactophila and Pichia pseudocactophila. There are few distinctions between these taxa besides spore type, host preference and locality. Sporogenous strains of P. insulana that produce asci with four...
