Special topic: Yeasts isolated from natural environments in
               Rishiri & Iriomote Islands, Japan
+---------------------------------------------------------------------
A series of 916 yeast strains isolated from natural environments in
Rishiri & Iriomote Islands, Japan, in the course of exploration of
yeast species richness was deposited and stocked in JCM. The yeast
strains consist of more than 150 species, almost half of which were
undescribed species at the time of the research project, representing
taxonomic richness of yeasts inhabiting in Japan (Takashima et al., 2012).
The yeast strain series includes high lipid producers, so called
oleaginous yeasts (Tanimura et al., 2014a), some of which have unique
characteristics for applications. For example, Solicoccozyma terricola
(JCM 24514 and others; former name, Cryptococcus terricola) and 
Cystobasidium iriomotense (JCM 24594T and others) have abilities to 
produce lipids from soluble starch and from mixture of glucose and 
xylose, respectively (Tanimura et al., 2014b, 2018).
The series is a promising screening source for further applications
with unique characteristics. In addition, they would be utilized for
basic research in the fields of yeast taxonomic study and species
diversity in nature.
List of yeast strains isolated from Rishiri and Iriomote Islands is
detailed in a webpage (https://www.jcm.riken.jp/cgi-bin/jcm/rishiri_iriomote).

"JCM BLAST Search" released
+---------------------------------------------------------------------
"JCM BLAST search" is now available. This feature allows you to search
for JCM strains (or equivalent strains) with genome sequences
homologous to your query sequence. At the present version, only
prokaryotic strains are included.
