SUMMARY
| 1. | Apodachlya brachynema was found capable of growing on the following carbon sources in the decreasing order of their utilization when the nitrogen source was asparagine: rice starch, corn starch, raffinose, maltose, glucose, galactose, and lactose. Lactose was barely utilized, if at all. | ||||
| 2. | Growth occurred on media providing the following nitrogen sources when the carbon source was sucrose: sodium nitrate, ammonium tartrate, calcium nitrate, ammonium chloride, ammonium sulfate, asparagine, and glycine. | ||||
| 3. | These findings are not in complete agreement with previous reports on nutrition of Apodachlya brachynema. Consequently certain interpretations based on physiological characteristics which have been regarded as of phylogenetic significance would seem to require reconsideration. | ||||
