Endophytic yeasts are yeast that can colonize healthy plant tissues without causing any damage to the host plant. This work aimed to explore the diversity of endophytic yeasts in leaf tissue of main agricultural crops (rice, corn and sugarcane) in Thailand, by a culture-dependent approach. A total of 311 leaf samples, consisting of rice (n = 100), corn (n = 109) and sugarcane (n = 102). From the tissue of rice (n = 92), corn (n = 76) and sugarcane (n = 78) leaf samples, 117, 118 and 123 yeast strains were respectively isolated and identified based on the D1/D2 region of the large subunit (LSU) rRNA gene sequence analysis to be yeast species in both the phyla Basidiomycota and Ascomycota. Higher numbers of basidiomycetous yeast than ascomycetous yeast were detected in the leaf tissue of the three crops. Pseudozyma (Dirkmeia) churashimaensis (Ustilaginales) was the most prevalent yeast species in the rice and corn leaves with relative frequencies (RF) of 35.9 % and 17.8 %, respectively. Whereas the predominant species in the sugarcane leaves was Meyerozyma caribbica (Saccharomycetales) with an RF of 14.6 %. In addition, six new yeast species and one new yeast genus were proposed. Our findings suggest that these plant species are good sources from which new yeast species may be isolated. (C) 2018 British Mycological Society. Published by Elsevier Ltd. All rights reserved.
