The yeast isolates were found to multiply by budding, not to form spore and any pigment and identified as Candida sp. The yeast isolates fermented glucose, galactose, sucrose, fructose, inulin and trehalose but not lactose, mannitol, maltose, inositol, melibiose, cellobiose and starch. The isolates grew poorly on Z-AII agar without glucose, whereas they grew very well on Z-AII agar with glucose (ZAG agar). The representative strain Y91-01 grew in a temperature range of 13 to 34°C, in a pH range of 2 to 9, and in a NaCl concentration range of 0 to 7%. Strain Y91-01 required biotin as incubated in glucose-(NH_4)_2SO_4 medium. The total lipids extracted from strain Y91-01 cells contained C_16:1, C_16:0, C_18:1 and C_18:0 as major fatty acids.}, pages = {51--59}, title = {Characteristics and Fatty Acid Composition of Yeast Isolated from the Intestines of Rainbow Trout Oncorhynchus mykiss}, volume = {42}, year = {} }
