Abstract:Five isolates of a xerophilic Talaromyces species were obtained from honey in Japan. Molecular phylogenetic analysis based on a combined dataset for four regions (rRNA internal transcribed spacer, β-tubulin, calmodulin and RNA polymerase II second largest subunit) revealed that the strains formed an independent clade in section Trachyspermi, which is sister to Talaromyces affinitatimellis, Talaromyces basipetosporus and Talaromyces speluncarum. The strains and their relatives have different growth on creatine … Show more
