Abstract:
A new species of Talaromyces sect. Subinflati isolated from soil in China is proposed based on polyphasic taxonomy, namely, T. bawangicus. Morphologically, this new taxon is characterized by limited growth on culturing media Czapek yeast autolysate agar (CYA), yeast extract sucrose agar (YES), Czapek solution agar (Cz) and oatmeal agar (OA), with sparse sporulation on CYA, Cz, OA, while abundant sporulation on YES, and moderate growth and sporulation on 5% malt extract agar (MEA), producing apically vesiculate stipes, loose biverticillate penicilli with metulae and phialides unequal in length, bearing ampuliform phialides and smooth-walled, ovoid, ellipsoidal to fusiform conidia. The proposed taxonomic novelty is supported by the phylogenetic analysis of the concatenated BenA-CaM-Rpb2-ITS sequence matrix. The new species is in the clade including Talaromyces guizhouensis, Talaromyces jiangxiensis, Talaromyces sinensis, Talaromyces subinflatus and Talaromyces tzapotlensis, closely related to T. jiangxiensis.
