The Rosettozymales are an order of fungi in the class Microbotryomycetes. The order contains a single family, the Rosettozymaceae, which in turn contains a single genus, Rosettozyma.[1] The order comprises fungi that are currently only known from their yeast states, isolated from plant leaves in China. Budding cells in yeast colonies always form rosette-like clusters, hence the name of the order.[1]
