Tremellomycetidae

Updated by Á. Fonseca - 19 December 2004

Tremellomycetidae / Note 07    

       Lineage: Hymenomycetes > Heterobasidiomycetes > Tremellomycetidae >Tremellales > mitosporic Tremellales > Cryptococcus’ (according to data in the paper by Takashima et al. IJSEM 2003 and to sequence comparisons made by A. Fonseca):

            move AB035045 (currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. aureus

move AB035050 (currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. carnescens

            move AB035047 (currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. peneaus

       Status: 

Tremellomycetidae / Note 06    

       Lineage: ‘(...) Tremellales > mitosporic Tremellales > Bullera’:

            move B. formosensis to ‘(...) Trichosporonales > Bullera’

move B. taiwanensis to ‘(...) Filobasidiales > mitosporic Filobasidiales > Bullera’

       Status:  Implemented (19.12.03).

Tremellomycetidae / Note 05    

       Note: Cr. nodaensis (Sato et al. 1999) has been considered a nom. inval. by Takashima et al. (2003) – the rDNA sequences under that species name in GenBank (AB016233, AB016234 and AF459668) are identical to those of Cr. flavescens and should therefore be moved under the latter species.

       Status:  Implemented (19.12.03).

Tremellomycetidae / Note 04    

       Former Cr. laurentii synonyms - Moving of sequences (GB entries) in ‘(...) Tremellales > mitosporic Tremellales > Cryptococcus’ (according to data in the paper by Takashima et al. IJSEM 2003 and to sequence comparisons made by A. Fonseca):

            move AB035041 (currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. aureus

            move AB035054 (currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. carnescens

move AB105431, AB105432, AB105433 (these 3 seq. correspond to the same strain IAM 14487) and AB105437, AB105438, AB105439 (these 3 seq. correspond to the same strain IAM 14506) (all currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. carnescens

            move AB035042 (currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. flavescens

            move AF487885 (currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. flavescens

            move AY188361 (currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. flavescens

            move AJ555467 (currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. flavescens

            move AJ509857 (currently under Crypt. sp. HB1043) to Cr. flavescens

            move AB035051 (currently under Cr. laurentii) to Cr. peneaus

       Status:  Partially implemented (19.12.03).

Tremellomycetidae / Note 03    

       Lineage: Hymenomycetes > Heterobasidiomycetes > Tremellomycetidae > Tremellomycetidae incertae sedis > Cryptococcus:

            move Cr. watticus to ‘mitosporic Tremellales’

move Crypt. spp. HB946, HB953, HB1042, HB1048 and HB1052 to ‘mitosporic Tremellales’

       Status: Implemented (19.12.03).

Tremellomycetidae / Note 02    

       According to data published in Scorzetti et al. 2002 (FEMS Yeast Research) and Thomas-Hall & Watson 2002 (IJSEM 52:1033-1038) and despite the uncertain position of the clade that includes Cryptococcus nyarrowii and Holtermannia corniformis we suggest that, for the time being, the species/strains mentioned below should be moved as follows:

           Holtermannia corniformis should be moved from Tremellomycetidae incertae sedis to Tremellales > Tremellaceae.

           Sequence AF360844 of strain CBS 8016 presently named Cryptococcus laurentii should be renamed Cryptococcus sp. and moved out of Cryptococcus laurentii but remain in Tremellales > mitosporic Tremellales.

       Status: Implemented (07.01.03).

Tremellomycetidae / Note 01    

       Cryptococcus nyarrowii and Cryptococcus sp. CBS 7712 should be moved from Tremellomycetidae incertae sedis to Tremellales > mitosporic Tremellales

       Status: Implemented (12.10.02).
