Cystofilobasidium macerans (sap yeast) is a species of yeast-forming fungi in the genus Cystofilobasidium in the family Cystofilobasidiaceae.

Name and History

Etymology

Taxonomic History

Cystofilobasidium macerans was established as a species in the genus ''Rodotorula'' under the name Rhodotorula macerans by Freder in 1956. (citation: Rhodotorula macerans Freder., Friesia 5(3-5): 237 (1956), https://www.speciesfungorum.org/GSD/GSDspecies.asp?RecordID=517356)

In 1970 it was moved into the genus Cryptococcus, becoming Cryptococcus macerans (citation:(Cryptococcus macerans (Freder.) Phaff & Fell, in Lodder, Yeasts, a taxonomic study, 2nd Edn (Amsterdam): 1127 (1970), https://www.speciesfungorum.org/GSD/GSDspecies.asp?RecordID=517356)

It was most recently moved into its current genus, Cystofilobasidum, in 2009 following ??? study. Citation: J.P. Samp., in Libkind, Gadanho, Broock & Sampaio, Int. J. Syst. Evol. Microbiol. 59(3): 627 (2009), https://www.speciesfungorum.org/GSD/GSDspecies.asp?RecordID=517356

The genus Cystofilobasidium currently contains eight other species worldwide, nine species if including Cystofilobasidium macerans.^[1]^[2]

Cellular Biology

Like other members of its genus, Cystofilobasidium macerans occurs as yeasts (single-celled fungus microorganisms), but also produces filamentous sexual states that form dikaryote teliospores, from which the unicellular basidia (if present) are formed. The hyphae usually have dolipore septa without a parenthesome, and their cell walls contain xylose.^[3]
