“…The haploid, heterothallic strains formed one ascospore in each persistent ascus with an attached apical cell, when mixed in compatible mating combinations. Their other phenotypical characteristics also fit to the diagnosis of the genus Spencermartinsiella (Péter et al , 2011).…”

“…The four strains of the novel species of the genus Spencermartinsiella were recovered from independent rotten wood samples collected in Hungary. S. europaea and C. cellulosicola were also isolated from similar substrates (Péter et al , 2011; Guo et al , 2012), like numerous other strains of the neighbouring genera Blastobotrys , Sugiyamaella and related species of the genus Candida (Smith et al , 2011b; Kurtzman, 2011; Lachance et al , 2011b). S. ligniputridi sp.…”

“…The monotypic genus Spencermartinsiella can only be recognized from DNA sequence comparisons because the characteristic properties of its sexual reproduction, i.e. the formation of spheroid or ellipsoid, persistent asci with an attached apical cell, are shared by some members of the genera Trichomonascus and Sugiyamaella (Péter et al , 2011). In addition to Spencermartinsiella europaea , the only species of the genus, a related anamorphic species, Candida cellulosicola has recently been described (Guo et al , 2012).…”

“…In addition to Spencermartinsiella europaea , the only species of the genus, a related anamorphic species, Candida cellulosicola has recently been described (Guo et al , 2012). Both S. europaea and C. cellulosicola were isolated from rotten wood, and were reported to assimilate cellobiose and xylose (Péter et al , 2011; Guo et al , 2012). These carbohydrates can be derived during the degradation of polymers which are constituents of wood.…”

Four strains of a novel heterothallic yeast species were isolated from rotten wood samples collected at different locations in Hungary. Analysis of sequences of the D1/D2 domain of the large subunit rRNA gene placed the novel species in the genus Spencermartinsiella. The novel species can be distinguished from Spencermartinsiella europaea, the single species of the genus, and from Candida cellulosicola, the only recognized anamorphic species of the Spencermartinsiella clade, on the basis of standard phenotypic characteristics. The relatedness among the four strains of the novel species and two closely related strains representing undescribed yeast species is discussed. The name Spencermartinsiella ligniputridi sp. nov. is proposed to accommodate the four novel strains. The type and isotype strains of Spencermartinsiella ligniputridi sp. nov. are NCAIM Y.01992T ( = CBS 12585T = NRRL Y-48818T) and NCAIM Y.01936I ( = CBS 12586I = NRRL Y-48819I), respectively. Two additional strains are NCAIM Y.01991 and NCAIM Y.01993.

“…Including JEY63, this alignment included 435 taxa. A second data set (4 loci/79 taxa) was built combining JEY63 sequences of the 18S, 26S, 12S, and TEF1 loci with sequence data of the same loci sampled in GenBank for 77 taxa representative of the major clades identified in the Saccharomycetes in previously published phylogenetic studies (22)(23)(24) and for an outgroup, Schizosaccharomyces pombe (see Table S1 in the supplemental material). Alignment of nucleotide sequences was performed manually using the MacClade 4.06 editor (25).…”

dFrom a collection of yeast isolates isolated from patients in Tunisian hospitals between September 2006 and July 2010, the yeast strain JEY63 (CBS 12513), isolated from a 50-year-old male that suffered from oral thrush, could not be identified to the species level using conventional methods used in clinical laboratories. These methods include matrix-assisted laser desorption ionization-time of flight mass spectrometry (MALDI-TOF MS), germ tube formation, and the use of CHROMagar Candida and metabolic galleries. Sequence analysis of the nuclear rRNA (18S rRNA, 5.8S rRNA, and 26S rRNA) and internal transcribed spacer regions (ITS1 and ITS2) indicated that the ribosomal DNA sequences of this species were not yet reported. Multiple gene phylogenic analyses suggested that this isolate clustered at the base of the Dipodascaceae (Saccharomycetales, Saccharomycetes, and Ascomycota). JEY63 was named Candida tunisiensis sp. nov. according to several phenotypic criteria and its geographical origin. C. tunisiensis was able to grow at 42°C and does not form chlamydospores and hyphae but could grow as yeast and pseudohyphal forms. C. tunisiensis exhibited most probably a haploid genome with an estimated size of 10 Mb on at least three chromosomes. Using European Committee for Antimicrobial Susceptibility Testing (EUCAST) and Clinical and Laboratory Standards Institute (CLSI) Candida albicans susceptibility breakpoints as a reference, C. tunisiensis was resistant to fluconazole (MIC ‫؍‬ 8 g/ml), voriconazole (MIC ‫؍‬ 0.5 g/ml), itraconazole (MIC ‫؍‬ 16 g/ml), and amphotericin B (MIC ‫؍‬ 4 g/ml) but still susceptible to posaconazole (MIC ‫؍‬ 0.008 g/ml) and caspofungin (MIC ‫؍‬ 0.5 g/ml). In conclusion, MALDI-TOF MS permitted the early selection of an unusual isolate, which was still unreported in molecular databases but could not be unambiguously classified based on phylogenetic approaches.
