YeastIP is a comprehensive gene database which contains the major barcodes of all the species of the subphylum Saccharomycotina and tools to establish the identification of yeasts to the species level and their phylogenetic relationships.
MycoBank is owned by the International Mycological Association and is an on-line database aimed as a service to the mycological and scientific community by documenting mycological nomenclatural novelties (new names and combinations) and associated data, for example descriptions and illustrations. Pairwise sequence alignments and polyphasic identifications of fungi and yeasts against curated references databases are proposed.
