Yeasts lack chlorophyll and are unable to manufacture by photosynthesis from inorganic substrates the organic compounds required for growth, as do higher plants, algae, and even some bacteria. (biologydiscussion.com)
Species2
A unicellular budding fungus which is the principal pathogenic species causing CANDIDIASIS (moniliasis). (lookformedical.com)
The gut is continuously invaded by diverse bacteria from the diet and the environment, yet microbiome composition is relatively stable over time for host species ranging from mammals to insects, suggesting host-specific factors may selectively maintain key species of bacteria. (bvsalud.org)
Pentose2
Some species can metabolize five-carbon (pentose) sugars such as fructose , as well as alcohols and organic acids. (newworldencyclopedia.org)
AGA58 is an obligatory homofermentative where hexose sugars such as galactose, glucose, fructose, sucrose, mannose, N-acetyl glucosamine, maltose, trehalose are fermented to lactate thru glycolysis and no acid production from pentose sugars achieved due to lack of key enzyme namely phosphoketolase in pentose phosphate pathway.

Glucose1
They obtain their main source of carbon from hexose (six-carbon) sugars such as glucose , or disaccharides such as sucrose and maltose . (newworldencyclopedia.org)
Time1
AGA58 is micro-anaerobic owing to shorter doubling time and faster growth rate achieved compared microaerofilic condition. (sciencegate.app)
Environment1
Yeasts are ubiquitous in the environment, but are most frequently isolated from sugar-rich media, such as fruits and berries (e.g., grapes , apples , or peaches ) and exudates from plants (such as plant saps or cacti). (newworldencyclopedia.org)
