Taxonomy: Eukaryota | Opisthokonta | Fungi | Dikarya | Ascomycota | saccharomyceta | Saccharomycotina | Saccharomycetes | Saccharomycetales | Saccharomycetaceae | Kluyveromyces | Kluyveromyces lactis Anamorph: Candida sphaerica Synonym: Kluyveromyces marxianus var. lactis, Kluyveromyces marxianus var. drosophilarum, Kluyveromyces marxianus lactis, Kluyveromyces drosophilarum, Kluyveromyces lactis var. drosophilarum, Kluyveromyces lactis var. lactis Comment: Kluyveromyces lactis is a petite-negative hemiascomycete yeast. Compared to Saccharomyces cerevisiae, it can use a wider variety of carbon sources, and many of its strains were originally isolated from milk-derived products in which the major carbon source is lactose.
