Let R be a ring and M a right R-module. Let σ[M] be the full subcategory of Mod-R subgenerated by M. An M-natural class 𝒦 is a subclass of σ[M] closed under submodules, direct sums, isomorphic copies, and M-injective hulls. We present some equivalent conditions each of which describes when σ has the property that direct sums of (M-)injective modules in σ are (M-)injective. Specializing to particular M, and/or special subclasses we obtain many new results and known results as corollaries.
