Abstract
background: Independent surveys across the globe led to the proposal of a new basidiomycetous yeast genus within the Bulleromyces clade of the Tremellales, Bandoniozyma gen. nov., with seven new species.
methodology/principal findings: The species were characterized by multiple methods, including the analysis of D1/D2 and ITS nucleotide sequences, and morphological and physiological/biochemical traits. Most species can ferment glucose, which is an unusual trait among basidiomycetous yeasts.
conclusions/significance: In this study we propose the new yeast genus Bandoniozyma, with seven species Bandoniozyma noutii sp. nov. (type species of genus; CBS 8364(T)  =  DBVPG 4489(T)), Bandoniozyma aquatica sp. nov. (UFMG-DH4.20(T)  =  CBS 12527(T)  =  ATCC MYA-4876(T)), Bandoniozyma complexa sp. nov. (CBS 11570(T)  =  ATCC MYA-4603(T)  =  MA28a(T)), Bandoniozyma fermentans sp. nov. (CBS 12399(T)  =  NU7M71(T)  =  BCRC 23267(T)), Bandoniozyma glucofermentans sp. nov. (CBS 10381(T)  =  NRRL Y-48076(T)  =  ATCC MYA-4760(T)  =  BG 02-7-15-015A-1-1(T)), Bandoniozyma tunnelae sp. nov. (CBS 8024(T)  =  DBVPG 7000(T)), and Bandoniozyma visegradensis sp. nov. (CBS 12505(T)  =  NRRL Y-48783(T)  =  NCAIM Y.01952(T)).
