Distribution features of yeasts in soils of South Vietnam (case study of the biogeocenoses of the National Park Cát Tiên)

Abstract

Abstract The yeast communities of tropical soils of two biotopes in monsoon tropical forest in the specially protected natural territories of the National Park Cát Tiên were studied. It was possible to establish that the distribution of yeasts in the profile of studied soils differed markedly. Of particular interest was the isolation from the tropical soils of Vietnam the pedobiont yeast species Saitozyma podzolica, which is regularly found in soils of temperate latitudes of Russia and other regions.
