DNA sequence similarity, cell wall mannans and physiological characteristics in some strains of Candida utilis, Hansenula jadinii and Hansenula petersonii

P L Manachini. Antonie Van Leeuwenhoek. 1979.

Abstract

The physiological characteristics, proton magnetic resonance spectra of cell wall mannans, DNA base composition and DNA sequence similarity of some strains of Candida utilis, Hansenula jadinii and Hansenula petersonii were examined. It was found that C. utilis was not distinguishable from H. jadinii by any of these criteria. These findings show the close genetic relationship between C. utilis and its perfect form H. jadinii. In contrast, H. petersonii was found to differ from C. utilis and H. jadinii on account of insignificant DNA reassociation as well as a number of other properties.
