 Description: Growth in glucose-yeast extract-peptone (YM) broth: After growth in YM broth at 25 °C for 3 days, the vegetative cells are ovoidal to spheroidal (3.2-5.0 × 3.6-5.2 μm), single or in pairs. Vegetative reproduction is accomplished by multilateral budding. Sediment is present. Growth on glucose-yeast extract-peptone (YM) agar: After growth on YM agar for 7 days at 25 °C, streak cultures are creamy, butyrous, smooth, and glistening. Dalmau plate culture on corn meal agar: On Dalmau plate cultures on corn meal agar after 10 days at 25 °C, pseudomycelium and mycelium are absent. Formation of ascospores: Asci resulting from cell – bud conjugation containing a single warty, spheroidal ascospore were observed on YM agar, Fowell’s acetate agar, and malt extract agar after incubation at 18°C and 25°C for 14 days.
