Abstract
PHYSIOLOGICAL studies on micro-organisms regularly isolated from soil profiles may lead eventually to a clearer interpretation of the ecological relationships of these organisms. To this end studies were initiated on the nutrition of a species of Mortierella. Although members of this genus are consistently isolated from soils, little is known of their nutrition.
