Abstract
The utilization of L-sorbose by twelve pathogenic species ofPhyllosticta was investigated. Seven species attained meagre growth on this substance when it was used as sole carbon source in the medium while the other five species,viz., P. buteae, P. dracaenae, P. dardanoi, P. morifolia andP. glaucispora completely failed to accomplish any growth even if the incubation period was raised to sixty days. Chromatographic analysis of the medium revealed that utilizability of sorbose was considerably increased if it was used in combination with good sources like sucrose, maltose or glucose, etc.
