Cartusia hunanesis sp. nov. (Oculatellaceae, Oculatellales) from a Stream in China Based on Polyphasic Approach

Cartusia hunanesis sp. nov. was isolated from a stream in China, and two strains (ZJJ02 ZJJ03) of which were inquired using morphological features, ecological evidence, molecular data consisting the 16S rRNA gene 16S–23S intergenic transcribed spacer (ITS) region. varies type species fontana by having only single trichome sheath large granules near cross wall. The investigated C. revealed to be sister clade fontana, according phylogenetic analysis based on gene. In addition, clustered with family Oculatellaceae members, genera Pegethrix Elainella. These displayed 97.6% similarity fontana. ITS region found considerably distinct that terms secondary structure, demonstrated is novel owing divergences its genetic compared related
