Pichia lachancei sp. nov., associated with several Hawaiian plant species.
نویسندگان
چکیده
A description is given of Pichia lachancei sp. nov., a new species of yeast that occurs in association with several Hawaiian plant species of the genera Tetraplasandra, Cheirodendron and Clermontia. The new species is heterothallic and occurs in nature in the haploid as well as the diploid state. Upon conjugation of complementary mating types, zygotes are formed that reproduce by budding as diploid cells. When placed on sporulation medium, four hat-shaped spores are produced which are rapidly released from the ascus. Phylogenetic analysis showed that P. lachancei is most closely related to Pichia rhodanensis and Pichia jadinii. The diploid type strain of P. lachancei, isolated from rotting bark of Tetraplasandra hawaiiensis on the island of Hawaii, is strain UCD-FST 79-9T (= ATCC 201914T = CBS 8557T = NRRL Y-27008T).

Fourteen apiculate yeast strains isolated from various sources in South Africa, North America and the Hawaiian islands were found to be genetically divergent from other Hanseniaspora-Kloeckera species by using randomly amplified polymorphic DNA (RAPD)-PCR. After cluster analysis of the RAPD-PCR fingerprints, five groups were recognized. DNA reassociation values among representatives of these gr...

A description is given for Pichia hawaiiensis sp. nov., a nitrate-utilizing member of the genus Pichia E. C. Hansen emend. Kurtzman. Seven strains of the new species were isolated during the years 1972, 1973 and 1978 from rotting bark of the Hawaiian tree genera Charpentiera, Pisonia and Cheirodendron. P. hawaiiensis is heterothallic but appears to occur in nature mainly in the diploid state. A...

Two new species of the ascosporic yeast genus Metschnikowia were isolated from nectaries and associated muscoid flies of flowers from the common milkweed (Asclepias syriaca) in North America, and are described as Metschnikowia vanudenii [type strain=PYCC 4650(T)=CBS 9134(T)=NRRL Y-27243(T)=UWO(PS) 86A4.1(T)] and Metschnikowia lachancei [type strain=PYCC 4605(T)=CBS 9131(T)=NRRL Y-27242(T)=UWO(P...
متن کاملNew species of Hyposmocoma (Lepidoptera, Cosmopterigidae) from the remote Northwestern Hawaiian Islands of Laysan, Necker, and Nihoa
The endemic Hawaiian cosmopterigid moth genus Hyposmocoma Butler, 1881 contains 315 described species, making it one of the Archipelago’s most diverse radiations. However, only one species was previously described as endemic to the Northwestern Hawaiian Islands (NWHI), and prior taxonomic work in the region has been problematic. The NWHI represent a series of much older island remnants and atol...
متن کاملPichia porticicola sp. nov., a novel ascomycetous yeast related to Pichia acaciae isolated from galleries of ambrosia beetles in Japan.
Eleven strains of yeasts, isolated from galleries of ambrosia beetles in Japan, formerly identified as Pichia acaciae were found to have different sequences in the D1/D2 domain of the large subunit (LSU) rRNA gene. After detailed taxonomic studies including a DNA-DNA reassociation experiment, 11 strains were found to represent a novel species of the genus Pichia. It is described as Pichia porti...
