Among ballistoconidium-forming yeast strains isolated from various plant leaves collected in Banna, Yunnan Province, China, five strains that formed pink-coloured colonies and asymmetric ballistoconidia were classified in a single group and assigned to the genus Sporobolomyces by conventional and chemotaxonomic studies. Analyses of the internal transcribed spacer region and 26S rDNA D1/D2 domain sequences indicated that these strains represent a novel species with a close phylogenetic relationship to Sporobolomyces blumeae in the Sporidiobolus lineage, for which the name Sporobolomyces bannaensis sp. nov. is proposed (type strain Y41T=AS 2.2285T=CBS 9204T).
Published online ahead of print on 23 May 2003 as DOI 10.1099/ijs.0.02807-0.
The GenBank accession numbers for the 26S rDNA D1/D2 domain sequence of Y41T and the ITS sequences of Y41T and Y01 are respectively AY274823, AY274824 and AY274825.
A phylogenetic tree based on ITS sequences is available as supplementary material in IJSEM Online.
