Bannoa

Bannoa Hamam. 2002, in Hamamoto, et al., International journal of systematic and evolutionary microbiology 52, 1023-1032 (2002)

Etymology: Bannoa (Ban´no.a. N.L. fem. n. Bannoa of Banno, in honour of I. Banno, for his pioneering work on the teleomorphic life cycle of basidiomycetous yeasts).

Diagnosis: The genus is placed in the class Urediniomyces. Colonies are orange to salmon-red. Cells are spherical to ovoid, single or in pairs. Ballistoconidia are ovoidal and ellipsoidal. Pseudomycelium is absent. True mycelium with clamp connections at septa is produced after cell conjugation. Teliospores are not formed. Unicellular basidia arise laterally on a clamp or terminally. Cells of basidia germinate with hyphae, from which yeast cells originate. Sugars are not fermented. Urease and Diazonium blue B reactions are positive. Xylose is absent from whole-cell hydrolysates. The major ubiquinone is Q-10(H₂).
