Notes:
Nine Candida species isolated from fleshy fruits have been examined for their organic growth factor requirements. Complete or partial deficiencies for thiamine, biotin, pyridoxine, inositol, pantothenic acid, ascorbic acid and xanthine have been reported in C. catenuclta, C. curiosa, C. curvata, C. humicola, C. rhagii, C. steatolytica and C. tropicalis. Only two species, namely, C. fragicola and C. ishiwadea were prototrophic for the growth factors. Concentrations of essential growth factors higher than the optimum have been found inhibitory for the growth of yeasts.
