'Cryptococcus statzelliae' sp. nov. and three novel strains of 'Cryptococcus victoriae', yeasts isolated from Antarctic soils
A morphological and physiological characterization of yeast strains CBS 8908, CBS 8915, CBS 8920, CBS 8925^T and CBS 8926, isolated from Antarctic soils, was performed. Phylogenetic analyses of the sequences of the D1/D2 regions and the adjacent internal transcribed spacer (ITS) regions of the large...
