Abstract
The different carbon source tested, the pathogen preferred monosaccharide and oligosaccharides for nutrition. Maximum growth was recorded on maltose followed by glucose, fructose and sucrose. Disaccharides were good but polysaccharides not good sources. Among nitrogen sources, the pathogen preferred potassium nitrate followed by sodium nitrate and asparagines. Lead nitrate and ammonium chloride supported least growth.
