Abstract

Abstract—Leucosporidium egoroviorum f.a., sp. nov., a new anamorphic species of the basidiomycetous yeasts, was isolated as an endophyte from the fruits of Cucurbita pepo subsp. pepo (zucchini). According to its genetic, physiological, and morphological characteristics, the new species differed significantly from the closely related species L. fellii, L. intermedium, and L. krtinense. The holotype of the new specise, KBP Y-6804T, is preserved in a metabolically inactive state; its isotype strains are VKM Y-3065, DSM 113574, and CBS 17590. The MycoBank number is MB 842805.
