AbstractBessa [Be] proved that for given n and i0, there exists an depending on n, i0 such that if M admits a metric g satisfying , then M is diffeomorphic to the standard sphere. In this note, we improve this result by replacing a lower bound on the injectivity radius with a lower bound of the conjugate radius.
