✦ Synopsis


83 fungal species were tested for their correlation between carboxin sensitivity and glycolytic ability regarding the taxonomic position of the test fungi.

Besides basidiomycetes the ascomycetous orders Helotiales, Sordariales, Chaetomiales, and Dothiorales showed carboxin sensitivity which was coupled with lacking fermentation and acid production while carboxin resistant taxa as a rule behaved vice versa. Furthermore, hexose monophosphate participation was high and phosphofructokinase activity was low in carboxin sensitive fungi.

It is concluded that response to carboxin and glucose metabolism are coupled characters but without strict causal connection. In yeast‐like fungi carboxin sensitivity may indicate their taxonomic position within the basidiomycetes.
