  1. aAP is the 5.8S-ITS amplified product size in base pairs (bp). bSequence length is the size of the D1/D2 domains of the 26S rDNA of the strains amplified with universal primers NL1 and NL4. cYeast species were identified by comparing the 5.8S-ITS PCR product size pattern obtained for each group with the pattern of the strains described by Esteve-Zarzoso et al. (1999), Granchi et al. (1999), Las Heras-Vazquez et al. (2003), Osorio-Cadavid et al. (2008), Stringini et al. (2008), Pham et al. (2011), and Wang and Liu (2013). dIdentity is the percentage of identical nucleotides in the sequence of the D1/D2 domains of 26S rDNA and the sequence with the best hit in the GenBank database. The ITS-RFLP groups are Saccharomyces cerevisiae (I), Pichia kluyveri (II), Kazachstania unispora (III), Meyerozyma guilliermondii (IV), Candida tropicalis (V), Candida intermedia (VI), Hanseniaspora guilliermondii (VII), Kazachstania exigua (VIII), and Pichia kudriavzevii (Issatchenkia orientalis) (IX).
