Abstract

The genomic structure of an industrial yeast strain Trichosporon spec. LS3 was compared with Trichosporon adeninovorans type strain CBS 8244. The cot values, the portion of single copy sequences (CBS 8244: 10.9 x 10(9) D, LS3: 10.6 x 10(9) D) as well as of repetitive sequences (CBS 8244: 6.0 x 10(9) D, LS3: 5.5 x 10(9) D) per haploid genome and genome complexity of these strains (CBS 2844: 16.9 x 10(9) D, LS3: 16.1 x 10(9) D) have been analysed. Both strains show a high genome complexity. The mitochondrial DNA content was measured and compared. No plasmidal DNA was identified for both strains. A survey of the data of genomic DNA made it possible to postulate for each of both strains a haploid set of chromosomes. The intraspecific reassoziation values of the nuclear DNA from the strain LS3 and CBS 8244 are interpreted to confirm classification of these strains based on physiological and genetical properties into one species Trichosporon adeninovorans.
