The present paper deals with mineral metabolism in Adensonia digitata Linn under pathogenesis. The dried healthy and infected samples were digested with tri acid according to the method of Toth et.al. (1948). The minerals were estimated by Atomic Absorption Spectrophotometer model nov. AA 350. The elements such as chromium, zinc, lead, cadmium and nickel were enhanced in the infected leaves, whereas cobalt, magnesium and iron contents were considerably reduced in the infected leaves, results into metabolic shift.
