Abstract

Soil microorganisms play an important role in maintaining soil quality  and they interact closely with vegetation. Little is known about the diversity  of yeasts ,their function in garden soil ecosystem and  their interaction with other biotic soil components, particularly in the mycorrhizosphere. The 15 yeast strains were isolated from garden soil samples. The samples were taken from gardens located in Sarva Vidyalaya campus of  the Kadi region. From the 15 yeast isolates obtained, morphologically and culturally diverse 7 isolates were selected for further study. These isolates were further characterized for the enzyme production and fermentation of various sugars. Many of the yeast species are known to be associated with lignocelluloses compound degradation, which suggest that yeast plays an important role as a decomposer in the garden soils. Soils have distinct yeast assemblages related to their physiological capacities and soil nutrient availability. The yeast isolates from soil can also be exploited for various industrial and biotechnological applications. These yeast isolates will be further studied for their various biochemical characterizations and their role in soil biogeochemical cycling.
