Morphological description
Culture characteristics: In YM broth, after 7 d at 17 °C, cells are ovoid and ellipsoidal, 2.8–3.5 × 3.8–5.9 μm and single, budding is polar (Fig. 14O), a sediment is present. One or more conidia are produced on each stalk-like conidiophore. Conidiophore is single or multiple, usually cluster on cells. After 1 mo at 17 °C, a sediment is present. On YM agar, after 1 mo at 17 °C, the streak culture is pale yellow, butyrous, smooth and glossy. The margin is entire. In Dalmau plate culture on corn meal agar, pseudohyphae are not formed. Sexual structures are not observed on YM, PDA, V8 and CM agar. Ballistoconidia are not produced.
