| malassezia cuniculi sp. nov., a novel yeast species isolated from rabbit skin. | members of the genus malassezia have rarely been associated with lagomorphs. during the course of an investigation of the lipophilic mycobiota of rabbit skin, two lipid-dependent isolates which could not be identified were recovered on leeming and notman agar medium from different animals. no growth of malassezia yeasts was obtained either on sabouraud's glucose agar or modified dixon agar media. in this study, we describe a new taxon, malassezia cuniculi sp. nov., including its morphological an ... | 2011 | 20560865 |
