Twig rust, caused by the fungus Melampsora farlowii (Arth.) Davis, is a common disease of eastern (Tsuga canadensis Carr.) and Carolina (T. caroliniana Engelm.) hemlocks throughout eastern North America. Although not generally a problem in forests, hemlock twig rust can cause considerable damage in commercial tree nurseries, where cultural conditions favor the development of disease. Unlike related Melampsora species. (e.g., the poplar rust fungus – M. medusae), M. farlowii produces only two spore stages – teliospores and basidiospores – and does not alternate between hemlock and a taxonomically unrelated plant. Teliospores in dead twigs and fallen needles germinate in spring, producing basidiospores that are wind-dispersed and infect young cones, needles, and stems of T. canadensis and T. caroliniana.

Phylogeny of the rust fungi: an approach using nuclear large subunit ribosomal DNA sequences2003 •
Sequence data from nuclear large subunit ribosomal DNA was used to infer phylogenetic relationships of selected genera of the Uredinales. We investigated 52 rust fungi representing nine families and three outgroup species. Neighbor joining analysis and a Bayesian method of phylogenetic inference using Monte Carlo Markov chains confirm the rust fungi as a natural group and indicate that Puccinia, Uromyces,

Prior phylogenetic studies of rust fungi have shown the Phakopsoraceae as polyphyletic. However, most of the ca. 13 genera currently placed in Phakopsoraceae s.l. have not been the subject of phylogenetic analyses. In this study we examine the placement of several species of Crossopsora (Phakopsoraceae) from newly generated nuc 28S rDNA (28S) sequence data. While the type species, C. ziziphi, cannot be excluded from the Phakopsoraceae s.s., several other species, including C. byrsonimae, are not congeneric with the type. Herein we describe the new genus Crossopsorella, based on C. byrsonimae as the type, to accommodate specimens of this species found in four different Byrsonima species.

Inoculation of faba bean seedling with freshly harvested teliospores of two isolates of Uromyces viciae fabae (Pers.) Schroet, resulted in successful germinating of telispores. Among the 12 faba bean cultivars tested using artificial inoculation, only 4 cultivars developed the five spore stages allowing the completion of the rust life cycle. Pycnia began to appear, as chlorotic flecks only, on the upper surfaces of the leaves 12-14 days after teliospore inoculation. Aecia formed only 10-12 days later on lower surfaces directly opposite to the pycnia formation. Aeciospores were collected and were used for inoculation of faba bean leaves. Uredia were formed 14-16 days later of aeciospores inoculation, under greenhouse conditions

Sexual reproduction of the stem rust pathogen, Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici (Pgt), on barberry (Berberis vulgaris) has been shown to provide initial inoculum for the development of the disease on wheat and barley and also generate diverse races of the pathogen. However, in our previous study, the stripe rust pathogen, P. striiformis f. sp. tritici (Pst), was not found on barberry in the U. S. Pacific Northwest. To determine why Pgt is able to infect the alternate host, while Pst cannot under the natural conditions, the viabilities of teliospores of both Pgt and Pst were investigated from 2011 to 2014 by determining the germination rates using telial samples collected periodically from wheat fields. Teliospores of Pst usually produced in July were physically degraded during winter, and their germination rate decreased from 50 to 90% in August to less than 1% in the following March and no germination after May. In contrast, Pgt teliospores usually produced in July and August remai...
