Abstract
1. Inulin and glucose are the most suitable carbohydrates for the carbon souros for this fungus, and lactose is the worst of all.
2. Polysaccharides are generally favorable carbon source for this fungus.
3. Organic acids as carbon cources are unfavorable to this fungus, and it can develop only in low percentages as 0.1%.
4. Maleic acid and fumaric acid have in some respect an unequal nutritive value to this fungus notwithstanding they are different only in stereocheinical construction of molecule.
5. In the nutrient solution which contains racemic acid as the carbon source, this fungus seems to assimilates d-tartaric acid better than 1-tartaric acid.
6. Of these acids succinic acid is the most favorable carbon source.
7. Mannite is a suitable carbon source.
8. Phenol derivatives check the development of the fungus in many cases.
9. Organic nitrogen compounds are better than inorganic nitrogen salts as the nitrogen source for this fungus.
10. Ammonia nitrogen and nitrate nitrogen are equal in their nutritive value to this fungus, but nitrite is unsuitable.
11. Amides are generally good nitrogen source for this fungus, and asparagine is the best of all.
