Description

Begerowomyces Q.M. Wang & F.Y. Bai gen. nov. MycoBank MB828827.

Etymology: the genus is named in honour of Dr. Dominik Begerow for his contributions to yeast taxonomy and his proposal of the order Cystobasidiales.

This genus is proposed for the branch represented by strain CGMCC 2.3164, which formed a separate clade. Member of the Cystobasidiales (Cystobasidiomycetes). The genus is mainly circumscribed by the phylogenetic analysis of the seven genes dataset, in which it occurred as a separate branch within the Cystobasidiales (Fig. 4).

Sexual reproduction not known. Colonies yellow, butyrous. Budding cells present. Pseudohyphae and hyphae not produced. Ballistoconidia not formed.

Type species: Begerowomyces foliicola Q.M. Wang, F.Y. Bai & A.H. Li.
