Sulo P, Laurencík M, Poláková S, Minárik G, Sláviková E Geotrichum bryndzae sp. nov., a novel asexual arthroconidial yeast species related to the genus Galactomyces. [JOURNAL ARTICLE] Int J Syst Evol Microbiol 2009 Jul 15.
Ten strains of an asexual arthroconidial yeast species were isolated from Bryndza, the traditional Slovak artisanal sheep cheese which was manufactured from raw milk during a four month summer production period at two Slovakian sites (the northern Ruzomberok and the central-southern Tisovec areas). The sequence comparison of the D1/D2 large subunit rRNA gene revealed that this yeast represented a novel species from the genus Geotrichum which involves anamorphs of the ascogenous genus Galactomyces. Geotrichum bryndzae sp. nov. is most closely related to Geotrichum silvicola(NRRL Y-27641T, CBS9194T AY158042) although yeasts with identical or very similar sequences have been found throughout the world. The type culture of Geotrichum bryndzae is CCY 16-2-1 (NRRL Y-48450T, CBS 11176).
