Abstract
A novel ascomycetous yeast was isolated from flowers of Lilium sp. and Ipom oea sp. in Korea. The name Metschnikowia koreensis sp. nov. (type strain SG 99-34(T) = CBS 8854(T) = KCTC 7998(T)) is proposed for this novel species b ased on comparative sequence analyses of the D1/D2 domain of 26S rDNA and p henotypic characteristics.
