A novel psychrotolerant member of the hymenomycetous yeasts from Antarctica: 'Cryptococcus watticus' sp. nov.
Soil, snow and organic material, collected in November 1997 from the Vestvold Hills, Davis Base, Antarctica, were screened for yeasts. Two isolates, which were shown to be indistinguishable by rDNA sequencing and protein analysis by SDS-PAGE, are described in this communication as a novel species, C...
