Results of salient physiological tests showed that some of the DBVPG and type strains could not be identified by current taxonomic keys. Electrophoretic karyotypes were identical for some species, with the type strains of the seven accepted species showing only five distinct chromosomal patterns. DNA–DNA hybridization analyses, using a non- radioactive dot-blot technique, allowed for the distinction of taxa. The taxonomic implications of these results are discussed.

Ten species of the genus Hanseniaspora have been recovered from grapes and are associated in two groups: H. valbyensis, H. guilliermondii, H. uvarum, H. opuntiae, H. thailandica, H. meyeri, and H. clermontiae; and H. vineae, H. osmophila, and H. occidentalis. This review focuses on the application of some strains belonging to this genus in co-fermentation with Saccharomyces cerevisiae that demonstrates their positive contribution to winemaking. Some consistent results have shown more intense flavors and complex, full-bodied wines, compared with wines produced by the use of S. cerevisiae alone. Recent genetic and physiologic studies have improved the knowledge of the Hanseniaspora/Kloeckera species. Significant increases in acetyl esters, benzenoids, and sesquiterpene flavor compounds, and relative decreases in alcohols and acids have been reported, due to different fermentation pathways compared to conventional wine yeasts.

Divergence in this domain is generally sufficient to resolve individual species, resulting in the prediction that 55 currently recognized taxa are synonyms of earlier described species. Phylogenetic relationships among the ascomycetous yeasts were analyzed from D1/D2 sequence divergence. For comparison, the phylogeny of selected members of the Saccharomyces clade was determined from 18S rDNA sequences. Species relationships were highly concordant between the D1/D2 and 18S trees when branches were statistically well supported.

Kurtzman revolutionised yeast systematics; this is an overview of the evolution of his thoughts on yeast species, genera and higher categories. Editor: Teun Boekhout ABSTRACT Cletus P. Kurtzman transformed the way yeast systematists practice their trade and how they perceive the yeast species. He redefined many genera of ascomycetous yeasts and provided a sound basis upon which to base higher taxonomic categories. Within his extraordinary corpus lies a trail of elements that can be used to reconstruct his evolving vision of the concepts that underlie the species and the genus, rarely set in a theoretical framework. While occasionally tipping his hat to the biological and phylogenetic species, Kurtzman espoused a concept founded primarily on genetic distance, even when claiming otherwise. In contrast, his notion of genus incorporated components of both genetic distance and phylogenetic structure, and possibly a size consideration. A phylogenetic approach predominated with higher taxa.

Kurtzman; yeast species; yeast genus; genetic distance; phylogenetics; Ascomycetes INTRODUCTION Kurtzman’s laboratory lived up to the highest standards and implemented forefront methodologies for imaging, ascospore ‘I have never done anything “useful”.

  • Taxonomy of Yeasts
    ^ÍV/-^ TECHmcAL BULLETIN NO. 1029 May 1951 .— 5 Taxonomy of Yeasts By LYNFERD J. WICKERHAM Zymologist Northern Regional Research Laboratory Bureau of Agricultural and Industrial Chemistry Agricultural Research Administration -- ! f^ R A R Y Jüri¿ 51951 U.Î. ainnrmm sf A«RIOüLTURí UNITED STATES DEPARTMENT OF AcKictrLTURE, WASHINGTON, D. C. PREFACE In early attempts at yeast classification, the characteristics em- ployed for separating the larger groups of yeasts were the ability to grow as filaments, the ability to produce asci which consist of two cells fused together, the shape of the ascospores, the ability to pro- duce a gaseous fermentation of one or more sugars, and the ability to produce pellicles on liquid media. Evidence obtained in the present study indicates that the use of the foregoing characteristics led to the unintentional cleavage of natural, or phylogenetic groups into sections. Moreover, sections of different phylogenetic lines which had in common only one or two of the characteristics just mentioned were often assembled into the same genus. These characteristics, applied by Hansen, Barker, and Klocker dur- ing the early 1900's, continue in use as the basis for separating genera and subgenera in the presently accepted system of yeast classification. As a result, all of the larger genera of both the ascosporogenous and nonascosporogenous yeasts contain dissimilar types. The mixing has been thorough—in many cases the true relationships which exist among species of the different genera have been concealed. Correction of this situation by the arrangement of species m what appear to be phylogenetic lines of related species is believed to be a major advance.

Bochman² Affiliations: ¹Laboratório de Microbiologia, Centro de Desenvolvimento Tecnológico, Universidade Federal de Pelotas, Pelotas, RS, Brazil ²Bochman Lab, Molecular and Cellular Biochemistry Department, Indiana University Bloomington, Bloomington, IN, United States Corresponding author: Prof. PhD. Matthew L. Bochman, [email protected] Abstract Thousands of yeasts have the potential for industrial application, though many were initially considered contaminants in the beer industry. However, these organisms are currently considered important components in beers because they contribute new flavors. Non-Saccharomyces wild yeasts can be important tools in the development of new products, and the objective of this work was to obtain and characterize novel yeast isolates for their ability to produce beer. Wild yeasts were isolated from environmental samples from Olympic National Park and analyzed for their ability to ferment malt extract medium and beer wort. Six different strains were isolated, of which Moniliella megachiliensis ONP131 displayed the highest levels of attenuation during fermentations. We found that M. megachiliensis could be propagated in common yeast media, tolerated incubation temperatures of 37°C and a pH of 2.5, and was able to grow in media containing maltose as the sole carbon source.
