Two ustilaginomycetous anamorphic strains were isolated from flowers in Taiwan. The phylogenetic analysis based on the combined rDNA sequence of ITS1-5.8S-ITS2 and large-subunit D1/D2 domains indicated that the closest recognized species was Pseudozyma fusiformata. The results of DNA-DNA hybridization and physiological characteristics supported that FIRDI 005T represents a novel species within the genus Pseudozyma. The name Pseudozyma pruni sp. nov. is proposed, with FIRDI 005T (=BCRC 34227T =CBS 10937T) as the type strain.
