A novel species of the black yeast genus Exophiala (order Chaetothyriales) is described. Strains were repeatedly obtained by enriching samples of wild berries from different plants, guano-rich soil and from oak railway ties treated with arsenic creosote under a toluene-rich atmosphere. An identical strain was encountered in a closed arsenic mine polluted by alkyl benzenes. Its potential use for purposes of bioremediation is discussed.
描述了一个新型的外瓶霉属(Chaetothyriales 目)黑酵母物种。该菌株是通过从不同植物、富含粪便的土壤以及富含甲苯的环境下用砷油处理过的橡木铁路枕木中富集野生浆果样本反复获得的。在一个受烷基苯污染的封闭砷矿中也遇到了一个相同的菌株。讨论了其在生物修复方面的潜在用途。
