A metsulfuron-methyl-resistant yeast strain, JHLT, was isolated from metsulfuron-methyl-contaminated soil collected in Jiangsu Province, China. Through morphological and physiological analysis as well as a molecular phylogenetic analysis based on the 26S rRNA gene D1/D2 region and internal transcribed spacer (ITS), this strain, which forms a clade with Candida vartiovaarae and a teleomorphic species, Williopsis saturnus, was revealed to represent a novel species in the genus Candida. The name Candida mengyuniae sp. nov. (type strain JHLT=CGMCC 2.3681T=CBS 10845T) is proposed for this novel species.

Abbreviations: ALS, acetolactate synthase; CBS, Centraalbureau voor Schimmelcultures, Fungal and Yeast Collection, Utrecht, The Netherlands; CICC, China Center of Industrial Culture Collection; ITS, internal transcribed spacer

The GenBank/EMBL/DDBJ accession numbers for the 18S rRNA gene, 26S rRNA gene D1/D2 domain and ITS region sequences of JHLT are EU043157, EU043158 and EU043159, respectively.
