KOCKOVÁ-KRATOCHVÍLOVÁ A., SLÁVIKOVÁ E., KOVAČOVSKÁ R., WAI YIN MOK (1988): Unusually occurring yeast-like organisms isolated from the equatorial locality in the basin of the river Amazon. Česká Mykologie 42(3): 170-175 (published: 12th August, 1988)
abstract
The paper shows the results of identification of unusually occurring yeast-like organisms isolated from the basin of the river Amazon near the equator. In addition to commonly known species of the genus Candida (e.g. C. albicans, C. tropicalis, C. guilliermondii, C. parapsilosis), species difficult to classify using standard keys were isolated from soil, human saliva, scalp, skin and amphibian tissues. Candida species comprised 75%, Trichosporon 19.5%, and sporogenic yeasts 5.5% of isolates. Most isolates were saprophytes, but pathogenic potential under specific climatic and physiological conditions cannot be excluded.
