Recognition of Yeast Species from Gene Sequence Comparisons

نویسنده

  • Cletus P. Kurtzman
چکیده

This review discusses recognition of yeast species from gene sequence comparisons, which have been responsible for doubling the number of known yeasts over the past decade. The resolution provided by various single gene sequences is examined for both ascomycetous and basidiomycetous species, and the greater resolution of species provided by multigene analyses is discussed. Various methods are presented for rapid species identification using gene sequences.

Identification of yeast species from uncultivated soils by sequence analysis of the hypervariable D1/D2 domain of LSU–rDNA gene in Kermanshah province, Iran

Yeasts are a polyphyletic group of ascomycete and basidiomycete fungi characterized by having a unicellular growth phase and sexual stages that are not enclosed in fruiting bodies. An attempt was made to identify yeast species in uncultivated soils collected from different areas of Kermanshah province, Iran, by analyzing hypervariable D1/D2 domain of the large subunit (LSU) rDNA gene sequencean...
