Protective role of trehalose during radiation and heavy metal stress in Aureobasidium subglaciale F134

Abstract An isolated black yeast-like strain was obtained from radiation-polluted soil collected from Xinjiang province in northwest China. On the basis of ITS and LSU rDNA sequence analysis, in combination with the colony morphology and phenotypic properties, the isolated strain was revealed to rep...
