Sclerotinia sclerotiorum was isolated from infected tissues of Indian mustard (Brassica juncea L.) and maintained on PDA after confirmed pathogenicity. Highest oxalic acid production was observed in the isolate SR 24 (29.9 mM) and lowest in SR11 (3.3 mM). All 25 different geographical isolates were classified in four groups on the basis of oxalic acid production.
