Abstract
The study was undertaken to isolate and characterize wild yeast strains from soil samples collected in Seoul, Korea. Among the 19 yeast strains obtained, 17 were previously recorded species. The remaining two strains, Wickerhamomyces sp. GW1-4 and Archaeorhizomyces sp. YB4-103 were new species candidates. The genomic and microbiological characteristics of GW1-4 and YB4-103 were investigated. Phylogenetic analyses based on the 26S rRNA gene sequences and internal transcribed sequences, GW1-4 and YB4-103, represent a distinct lineage within the family Phaffomycetaceae and Archaeorhizomycetaceae, respectively. The GW1-4 and YB4-103 strains had the highest sequence homology with Wickerhamomyces xylosivorus NBRC 111553T (88.97%) and Archaeorhizomyces finlayi CBS 128710T (87.55%), respectively.
