Description of Solicoccozyma gelidoterrea NYB 3-16

Cells are oval and show polar budding ( Fig. 1 ). After 3 days of incubation on YPD agar at 25℃, colonies are convex, glistening, and light-yellow. In the API 20C AUX test, strain NYB3-16 tests positive for glucose, calcium- 2-keto-D-gluconate, L-arabinose, D-xylose, D-galactose, methyl- α -D-glucopyranoside, D-cellobiose, D-maltose, and D-melezitose; weakly positive for adonitol, inositol, D-sorbitol, N -acetyl-D-glucosamine, and D-saccharose (sucrose); but negative for glycerol, xylitol, D-lactose (bovine origin), D-trehalose, and D-raffinose.

Strain NYB3-16 ( KCTC 37289 ) was isolated from soil collected in Nowon-gu , Seoul, Republic of Korea .
