A STUDY OF THE MARINE YEASTS IN TAIWAN
Yeasts Isolated from Tideland Mud, Wu-chi
District輔
Shih-Chin Sung體
Few investigations on marine yeasts have been reported. Waksman(7) described
the presence of Torula in sea water in 1931. Two more reports of marine yeasts
were presented by
Phaff的 in
1952 and Wood(8) in 1952. Recently, extensive studies
on various aspects of marine yeasts have been carried out by Suehiro (5)“:) at
Kyushu University. However, no work has been reported on marine yeasts in Taiwan.
The present investigation was to isolate marine yeasts from tideland mud and to
measure the adsorption of yeasts by the mud.
MATER』AιS
AND METHODS
Med.ia
M·Y Broth.Malt extract (Difeo) 3gm., yeast extract (Difco) 3gm., peptone
(Wako) 5gm吋 dextrose (Cica) 15gm吋 and sodium chloride (Cica) 30gm. were dissolved in 1000 ml. distilled water in a 2000 ml. flask by heating gently and stir(1)
ring constantly with a glass rod. When it cooled, pH was adjusted to 4.0 土 0.2 with
5N HCI. Then an aliquot of 5ml. was distributed to each of 20ml. test tubes. Tubes
were sterilized at 120 。C for 15 minutes.
(2) M-Y agar. 2.5 percent M-Y agar medium was prepared by addition of 25g
!11· ag,ar to the M-Y broth formula. The ingredients were also dissolved by heating.
pH was about 5.6. An aliquot of 15ml. or 5ml. of the medium was distributed to
each of 20ml. or lOml. test tubes for pouring agar plates or preparing agar slant民
respectively. Tubes were autoclaved at 120°C for 15 minutes.
(3) Brath for Fermentation Tests. Yeast extract 4.5m忌, peptone 7. 5 gm., sodium
chloride 30gm. were dissolved in lOOOml. of distilled water by heating gently.
After cooled, lrnl. of bromthyrnol blue (1. 6 percent alcoholic solution) was introdticed to the flask, then shaken well. An aliquot of 4ml. of the broth was distributed
to each lOrnl. test tubes (12 × lOOmm.) and a Duhdam tube was introduced. Sterilized
at 120。C for 15 minutes. Then, 2ml.of 6 percent dextrose or an e quivalent of
galactose, m altose, sucrose or lactose were introduced respectively i nto one of a
five-tube set. Sugar solutions were filter sterilized.

的 Broth for Sugar Assimilation Tests. 6. 7gm. yeast nitrogen base (Difeo) and
5gm. of dextrose or an equivalent of galactose, maltose, sucrose or lactose were
dissolved in lOOml. of sterilized distilled water. This lOX strength solution was then
filter sterilized, kept in the refrigerator and used as needed. The final medium
was prepared by pipetting 0.5ml. of lOX strength solution into a lOml. test tube
containing 4.5ml. of 3.0 percent sterilized sodium chloride solution. Tubes were
shaken well and ready for inoculation.
(5) Broth for Nitrate Assimilation Tests. 11. 7gm. yeast carbon base and 0. 78
gm. potassium nitrate were dissolved in lOOml. distilled water. This lOX strength
solution was filter sterilized and kept in refrigerator. Final medium was prep·
ared by pipetting 0.5ml. of lOX strength solution into a lOml. test tube containing
4.5ml. 3.0 percent sterilized sodium chloride solution. Tubes were shaken well
and ready for inoculation.
Methods
Isolation and Identification of Yeasts. Collections of mud were made at Wu
-chi, a small fishery harbor located on the west coast of this island near Taichung City. Each sample was collected with a sterilized spoon, put into a
50ml. sterilized cotton-plugged flask, and brought back to the laboratory immedi·
ately. One gram of mud was suspended in 5ml. sterilized sea water in a 20ml. test
tube, and shaken well. In order to inhibit the growth of bacteria and molds which
are normally predominant in mud, mud suspension was firstly inoculated in M-Y
broth containing 3 percent sodium chloride with pH of 4.0 士 0.2. Four tubes were
inoculated for each sample ; two inoculated tubes of each four were poured with
enough sterilized melted vaseline on the top of broth to make a seal at least lcm.
thick. The low pH inhibits the growth of bacteria, and the anaerobic condition
is unfavorable to molds. Tubes were incubated at 25。c for 5 days, then were
streaked on M-Y agar plates, ~lso incubated at 25。C. Representative yeast colonies
were selected to prepare smears for microscopic study to test for purity. The remainder of each of the colonies was ’, fished’, to duplicate M-Y agar slants. which
were incubated at 25。C for 48 hours and kept in the refrigerator for further
taxonomic identification.
Taxonomic identification was made by using the procedures of Wickerham盼
and Lodder and kreger-Van Rij(2).
Morphological studies were made cf asexual reproduction, cell morphology,
colonial characteristics and sporulation. Asexual reproduction, cell morphology
and colonial c haracteristics were studied by fo llowing the dalmau plate technique
suggested by W ickerham.
Following sterilization, 15ml. of melted M-Y agar was poured into each
sterilized petri dish The dishes were allowed to stand at room temperature for
one or two days before using to assure a dry surface. A single very light inoculation
from a slant culture was made near one side of the plate (as from the relative

positions 10 o’clock to 2 o’clock) In addition to the single inoculation, two point
inoculations were made near the other side of the plate (as at positions 4 o' clock
and 8 o’ clock) A central section of the streak inoculation and one of the point
inoculations were covered with cover glasses. With forceps a cover glass was
removed from absolute alcohol, drained momentarily, and the excess alcohol was
burned off by passing over a low flame. When the cover glass had cooled, one
edge was placed on the agar and the cover glass was allowed to fall across the
central portion of the inoculated streak, and a second cover glass was placed over
one point inoculation. The plate was incubated at 25。 C for one week. The great
advantage of the dalmau plate technique is that the cover glass removed from the
plate, after staining, could be directly used for microscopic studies of the hyphae
for filamentous species. Basic fuchsin was used to stain vegetative cells for
general studies.
Old cultures grown on M-Y agar slant were desirable for studying sporulation.
This was conducted by keeping the well-grown culture at refrigerator tempera ”
ture for more than six weeks. Decrease in moisture to a certain degree is
favorable for spore formation. Spores were stained with malachite green and
were then counterstained with safranin for microscopic studies.
Physiological studies was conducted to include the formation of pellicle, fermentation, sugar assimilation and nitrate assimilation.
The cultures grown in M-Y broth for 4 days were observed for pellicle formation. The fermentation tests were carried out in the yeast-peptone broth as above mentioned. Yeasts used for this test were taken from 48 hours slant cultures.
Five ml. sterilized distilled water was introduced into the slant tube to make a
suspension. Inoculum was O. lml. These inoculated test tubes were studied at 1,
2, 4, 6 and 10 days. Fermentation was indicated by accumulation of gas in the
Durham tube and the color change of the indicator.
Difeo yeast nitrogen base broth containing 0.5 percent various sugars were
used of testing sugar assimilation. Cultures of 24 hours were used as inoculum.
The media were slightly inoculated and kept at 25。C. After 7 days and again
at 21 days, tubes were shaken to suspend growth and then were placed against
a white card bearing lines approximately 3/4 of a millimeter wide. The lines
were drawn with India ink. If the lines could not. seen through the culture, or if
the lines appeared as diffuse, broad bands, the test was regarded as positive. If
the lin~-t~e distinguishable as such, the test was negative. The.two ..observations
indicate which reactions occurred rapidly and which occurred latently (3).
Nitrate assimilations were carried out in the broth prepared with Difeo yeast
carbon base and potassium nitrate. Procedures were similar to that of sugar assi
milation tests. However, yeasts grown on a rich medium may carry a reserve of
nitrogen in t he form of protein. Possible errors due to this reserve were eliminated by making two serial transfers in the nitrate a臼imilation broth . When the
first transfer was 7 days old, the culture wa.s shaken one loopful was transfered

The adsorption of yeasts by mud.
Yeast suspension was filtered with No. 2 filter paper to eliminate clumps
of yeast and the filtrate was poured into two test tubes. One of them was poured
into dried mud. Both tubes were shaken for one minute and allowed to stand for 30
minutes. 1'he supernatant was used to inoculat the M-Y agar plate. At 25°C after
4-5 days, the number of yeasts was counted and the adsorption rate was determind
by the following formula:
A.dsorp
Y': Number of yeasts in the test tube with mud.
Y: Number of yeasts in the test tube without mud.
RESULTS AND DISCUSSION
Yeasts morphology and physiology.
Seven strains have been isolated from the tideland mud collected from Wuchi the morphiogical characteristics of each strain obtained in the present
work does not follow exactly the typical descriptions given by Lodder and
Kreger-Van Rij份). Following Kriss's suggestion(l),in this paper only the name of
the most closely related species is given to each strain isolated.
The influence of the sea water environment to which the marine yeasts are
subjected also may he one of the factors which affect the variation. Further
studies on both morphology and physiology are necessary for definite identificat-1on.
