Description: | Growth on yeast extract-malt extract agar: After 3 days at 25 °C, the cells are globose (4.8-8.4 × 4.6-7.3 μm), and occur singly or in pairs. Vegetative reproduction is accomplished by multilateral budding. Growth on yeast extract-malt extract agar: After 7 days at 25°C, streak cultures are creamy, butyrous, smooth, convex, dull and entire. Dalmau plate culture on corn meal agar: On Dalmau plate cultures on corn meal agar after 10 days at 25 °C, neither pseudomycelium nor true mycelium is formed under the cover glass Formation of ascospores: Ascospores production on acetate at 18 °C . Cells can be directly transformed from diploid cells into asci containing one or two ellipsoidal ascospores. | |||
