This popular ornamental has showy pink or white flowers in spring and colorful berry-like fruit. Some species also have long thorns that provide protection for wildlife but may be a hazard in the landscape–thornless cultivars are available. Like other rosaceous plants, hawthorns are sus- ceptible to a number of diseases including fire blight, scab, leaf spot and several types of rust. Insect pests include lace bugs and leaf miners. DISEASES Cedar Rust diseases on hawthorn, which include hawthorn rust and quince rust, are caused by sev- eral fungi in the genus Gymnosporangium that spend part of their life cycle on Eastern red cedar (Juni- perus virginiana) and other susceptible junipers, and another part of their life cycle on plants in the rose family, especially Malus and Crataegus. Since two hosts are required for these fungi to complete their life cycle, one way to reduce disease problems is to avoid planting alternate hosts near each other. Hawthorn Rust, caused by Gymnosporangium globosum, is a significant concern for Crataegus spp. in the Northeast (7). Hawthorns are the main broadleaved host for this rust, and yellow-orange leaf spots are the most common symptom. (8). With severe infections, foliage may turn bright yellow and drop prematurely (15).

The effects of these diseases on junipers are minimal. On Apple and Crabapple Symptoms of cedar-apple rust on flowering crabapple and apple are easily identified. In late spring or early summer, bright, yellow-orange spots approximately 1/8 to 1/4 inch in diameter form on the upper surface of leaves. These spots gradually enlarge and turn orange. The tendrils remain on the galls through May. Trees with numerous galls are easily identified by their bright orange cast during rainy weather. The galls of cedar- apple rust last only one season; the spent galls dry and fall from the tree during the summer months.

  • Orange 'Koosh' Galls on Eastern Red Cedar
    Issue: 18-05 April 24, 2018 Orange ‘Koosh’ Galls on Eastern Red Cedar By: Gail E. Ruhl, [email protected] Three different rust fungi cause gall-like protrusions on eastern red cedar (Juniperus virginiana) trees. Figure 4 Figure 1 The bright orange gelatinous galls with tendril-like protrusions (Fig 1) resembling ‘koosh balls’ are caused by Gymnosporangium juniperi-virginianae. This fungal disease is known as Cedar Apple Rust. The galls develop on the cedar tree (Fig 2) and ‘sprout’ fungal spore-bearing tendrils during rainy periods in the spring (Fig 3 and 4). Spores from these galls infect apples and crabapples. Figure 2 Figure 5 Figure 3 Figure 6 The smaller, less conspicuous branch galls, with horn-like 1 of 2 protrusions shown in Figures 5 and 6, are known as Hawthorn Gelatinous swellings on the cedar branches (Figs 7, 8, 9 and 10) Rust and are caused by the fungus Gymnosporangium globosum. are signs of yet another type of rust disease known as Quince The fungus alternates between Juniperus spp. hosts; and Rust, caused by Gymnosporangium clavipes. This disease hawthorn, crabapple, and apple in addition to several other alternates between Juniperus and various rosaceae plants. rosaceous hosts. Hawthorn (Fig 11 ) is one of the most notable alternate hosts of this Quince Rust on Cedar. Rust galls girdle hawthorn branches (Fig12) and cause dieback. Figure 7 Figure 11 Figure 8 Figure 12 As noted above, these rust fungi require two separate hosts to complete their life cycle and thus the spores produced from the cedar galls are dispersed by wind-blown rain to infect succulent parts of various angiosperm hosts.

  • An Inventory of Fungal Diversity in Ohio Research Thesis Presented In
    An Inventory of Fungal Diversity in Ohio Research Thesis Presented in partial fulfillment of the requirements for graduation with research distinction in the undergraduate colleges of The Ohio State University by Django Grootmyers The Ohio State University April 2021 1 ABSTRACT Fungi are a large and diverse group of eukaryotic organisms that play important roles in nutrient cycling in ecosystems worldwide. Fungi are poorly documented compared to plants in Ohio despite 197 years of collecting activity, and an attempt to compile all the species of fungi known from Ohio has not been completed since 1894. This paper compiles the species of fungi currently known from Ohio based on vouchered fungal collections available in digitized form at the Mycology Collections Portal (MyCoPortal) and other online collections databases and new collections by the author. All groups of fungi are treated, including lichens and microfungi. 69,795 total records of Ohio fungi were processed, resulting in a list of 4,865 total species-level taxa. 250 of these taxa are newly reported from Ohio in this work. 229 of the taxa known from Ohio are species that were originally described from Ohio. A number of potentially novel fungal species were discovered over the course of this study and will be described in future publications. The insights gained from this work will be useful in facilitating future research on Ohio fungi, developing more comprehensive and modern guides to Ohio fungi, and beginning to investigate the possibility of fungal conservation in Ohio. INTRODUCTION Fungi are a large and very diverse group of organisms that play a variety of vital roles in natural and agricultural ecosystems: as decomposers (Lindahl, Taylor and Finlay 2002), mycorrhizal partners of plant species (Van Der Heijden et al.

    LES CHAMPIGNONS ET PSEUDO-CHAMPIGNONS PATHOGENES DES PLANTES CULTIVEES Biologie, Nouvelle Systématique, Interaction Pathologique Bouzid NASRAOUI <www.nasraouibouzid.tn> Préface du Prof. Mohamed BESRI - Diffusion gratuite / 2015 - Je dédie ce livre à l’Ame de ma Chère Mère Fatma mon Cher Père Larbi ma Chère Epouse Nabila mes Chers Enfants Safouane, Manel et Radhouane Préface Lorsque mon collègue Prof. Bouzid Nasraoui m’a demandé de préfacer son livre « les champignons et pseudo-champignons pathogènes des plantes cultivées : Biologie, nouvelle systématique, interaction pathologique », je ne savais pas par quoi commencer. Le titre me paraissait très ambitieux puisque le livre traitait de nombreux domaines. Ce n’est qu’après l’avoir attentivement lu que je me suis convaincu que les différentes parties du livre étaient intimement liées, cohérentes et très complémentaires. Quoiqu’appartenant à la vieille école qui classait les champignons phytopathogènes uniquement sur la base de leur morphologie macro- ou microscopique, j’ai été, en tant qu’enseignant-chercheur, amené, comme d’ailleurs Prof. Bouzid Nasraoui, à mettre à jour mes connaissances, à m’informer des développements récents en matière de classification des champignons, afin de pouvoir transmettre à mes étudiants des connaissances mise à jour et d’actualité. J’ai donc accepté avec grand plaisir de préfacer cet important ouvrage. Une préface est un texte placé en tête d'un ouvrage pour le présenter et le recommander au lecteur. Comme chacun sait, les champignons constituent un règne à part entière. Ils forment un vaste groupe diversifié. Ce sont des organismes ubiquistes retrouvés dans tous les écosystèmes. Les mycologues, phytopathologistes, scientifiques dans divers domaines (agriculture, médecine humaine et vétérinaire, technologie alimentaire, etc.) utilisaient exclusivement, il y a à peine une quinzaine d’années, une classification morphologique, dite systématique, basée uniquement sur l’observation de caractères macroscopiques et microscopiques des champignons.
