Abstract
This paper describes a new species from the Class Chlorophyceae, Mychonastes frigidus sp. nov., isolated from a cold-water mountain stream in the north of Russia (Subpolar Ural). The taxon is described using morphological and molecular methods. Mychonastes frigidus sp. nov. belongs to the group of species of the genus Mychonastes with spherical single cells. Comparison of ITS2 rDNA sequences and its secondary structures combined with the compensatory base changes approach confirms the separation between Mychonastes frigidus sp. nov and other species of the genus. Mychonastes frigidus sp. nov. represents a cryptic species that can only be reliably identified using molecular data.
期刊介绍:
Accounts of Chemical Research presents short, concise and critical articles offering easy-to-read overviews of basic research and applications in all areas of chemistry and biochemistry. These short reviews focus on research from the author’s own laboratory and are designed to teach the reader about a research project. In addition, Accounts of Chemical Research publishes commentaries that give an informed opinion on a current research problem. Special Issues online are devoted to a single topic of unusual activity and significance.
Accounts of Chemical Research replaces the traditional article abstract with an article "Conspectus." These entries synopsize the research affording the reader a closer look at the content and significance of an article. Through this provision of a more detailed description of the article contents, the Conspectus enhances the article's discoverability by search engines and the exposure for the research.
