Abstract
The fungus Rhynchosporium secalis (Oud.) Davis grew and speculated in liquid nutrient media that contained glucose, galactose or galacturonic acid, or a pair of those substances, as the sole carbon source. Sporulation was inhibited by high concentrations of glucose and galacturonic acid. Growth and sporulation were greatest on glucose, and least on galactose. Growth was increased when glucose and galacturonic acid were mixed. Nitrogen concentration affected sporulation but not growth.
