Pichia guillermondi Wickerham and Burton, a New Yeast Record From India as a Fish Pathogen

Journal Title: International Journal of Zoological Investigations - Year 2018, Vol 4, Issue 2

Abstract

A new yeast form, Pichia guillermondi, has been recorded as primary invader on the fish-- Labeo rohita and Labeo calbasu and identified by genomic DNA and ITS region sequence analysis. Pichia guillermondi has been reported, for the first time, from India as a fish pathogen. The climatic conditions have been found to affect the primary and secondary invaders on fish.
