However, the genus Schizosaccharomyces sensu Kurtzman et Robnett was taxonomically heterogeneous-natured and corresponded to a higher-ranked taxon, i.e., a monotypic family. Thus, the following three genera were confirmed in the family Schizosaccharomycetaceae. The genus Schizosaccharomyces sensu stricto was comprised of Schizosacchromyces pombe, the genus Octosporomyces was of the four species, Octosporomyces octosporus, Octosporomyces osmophilus, Octosporomyces lindneri and Octosporomyces cryophilus and the genus Hasegawaea was of Hasegawaea japonica. In conclusion, the precise classification of microorganisms will not be able to be expected in the generic designation without the p.. Read More»
