Four strains of two novel xylose-utilizing yeast species were obtained from samples collected in Thailand from decaying corncobs (strains KU-Xs13(T) and KU-Xs18), a decaying grass (KU-Xs20) and estuarine water from a mangrove forest (WB15(T)). On the basis of morphological, biochemical, physiological and chemotaxonomic characteristics and sequence analysis of the D1/D2 domain of the large subunit rRNA gene, the four strains were found to represent two novel species of the genus Candida in the Candida albicans/Lodderomyces elongisporus clade. Three strains (KU-Xs13(T), KU-Xs18 and KU-Xs20) were assigned as a single novel species, which was named Candida saraburiensis sp. nov. The type strain is KU-Xs13(T) (=CBS 11696(T)=NBRC 106721(T)=BCC 39601(T)). Strain WB15(T) represented another novel species of the genus Candida that was named Candida prachuapensis sp. nov. The type strain is WB15(T) (=CBS 11024(T)=NBRC 104881(T)=BCC 29904(T)).
从泰国腐烂玉米芯(菌株 KU-Xs13(T) 和 KU-Xs18)、腐烂草(KU-Xs20)和红树林河口海水(WB15(T))采集的样本中获得了两株新型木糖利用酵母种的 4 个菌株。基于形态学、生物化学、生理和化学分类学特征以及大亚基 rRNA 基因 D1/D2 区序列分析,这 4 个菌株被鉴定为属于白念珠菌/ elongisporus 属的念珠菌属的两个新型种。三株菌株(KU-Xs13(T)、KU-Xs18 和 KU-Xs20)被归为一个单一的新型种,命名为 Saraburiensis 念珠菌 sp. nov.。其模式株为 KU-Xs13(T) (=CBS 11696(T)=NBRC 106721(T)=BCC 39601(T))。菌株 WB15(T) 代表了念珠菌属的另一个新型种,命名为 Prachuapensis 念珠菌 sp. nov.。其模式株为 WB15(T) (=CBS 11024(T)=NBRC 104881(T)=BCC 29904(T))。
