Five strains of a novel yeast species were isolated from rotting wood samples collected in an Amazonian forest site in the state of Roraima, northern Brazil. The sequences of the D1/D2 domains of the large subunit of the rRNA gene showed that this species belongs to the Scheffersomyces clade and is related to Candida coipomoensis, Candida lignicola and Candida queiroziae. The novel species Candida amazonensis sp. nov. is proposed to accommodate these isolates. The type strain of C. amazonensis sp. nov. is UFMG-HMD-26.3(T) ( = CBS 12363(T) = NRRL Y-48762(T)).
从巴西北部罗赖马州亚马逊森林地区采集的腐烂木材样本中分离出了 5 株新型酵母菌株。核糖体 RNA 大亚基的 D1/D2 结构域序列显示,该物种属于谢氏酵母属,与假热带假丝酵母、木质侧耳酵母和奎氏假丝酵母有关。提议将这些分离物归入新型的假丝酵母属亚马逊种。新型假丝酵母属的模式株为 UFMG-HMD-26.3(T)(=CBS 12363(T)=NRRL Y-48762(T))。
