Chrysanthemum White Rust, Puccinia Horiana

FDACS-P-01637 Updated April 2016 Florida Department of Agriculture and Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry Adam H. Putnam, Commissioner of Agriculture Chrysanthemum White Rust, Puccinia horiana Dr. Tim Shubert, Florida Department of Agriculture & Consumer Services, Division of Plant Industry Chrysanthemum white rust is caused by the fungal pathogen Puccinia horiana. This exotic pathogen has made occasional appearances in the U.S. over the last 25 years, presumably as a result of the introduction of infected plant material. The rust is once again active on mums in New Jersey, New York and California (as of 11/7/03). The rust causes conspicuous and debilitating lesions on all the green above-ground parts of florist chrysanthemum (Chrysanthemum x morifolium) and some close relatives in that genus. The symptoms appear mostly on the leaves as light yellow chlorotic spots on the upper leaf surface (Figs. 1A and 1B). Corresponding buff-white raised pustules appear eventually on the lower leaf surface (Figs. 2A and 2B). There are only two spore stages in this rust’s life cycle. The telial stage spores are present in the large unsightly protuberant lesions on the leaf underside. These teliospores germinate in place under very high humidity to produce the other airborne or water-splashed spore stage, basidiospores. These basidiospores die when they dry out, so very moist conditions must prevail for chrysanthemum white rust to spread. Basidiospore production from teliospores can occur in as little as three hours of wetness, and two hours of leaf wetness is all that is required for successful infection by dispersed basidiospores. New telial pustules appear in about two to four weeks after infection. USDA-APHIS-PPQ policy is to eradicate white rust upon detection. Conscientious survey over several weeks, careful destruction of infected and exposed plants when discovered, and application of appropriate fungicides to nearby plants on a prescribed schedule can very successfully eradicate the disease. 1A 1B 2A 2B Figures 2A and 2B.

Asparagus Rust (Puccinia Asparagi) (Puccinia Matters-Of- Facts Seasons Infection
DEPARTMENT OF PRIMARY INDUSTRIES Vegetable Matters-of-Facts Number 12 Asparagus Rust February (Puccinia asparagi) 2004 • Rust disease of asparagus is caused by the fungus Puccinia asparagi. • Rust is only a problem on fern not the spears. • Infected fern is defoliated reducing the potential yield of next seasons crop. • First detected in Queensland in 2000 and in Victoria in 2003 Infection and symptoms Infections of asparagus rust begin in spring from over-wintering spores on crop debris. Rust has several visual spore stages known as the orange, red and black spore stages. Visual symptoms of infection start in spring/summer with light green pustules on new emerging fern which mature into yellow or pale orange pustules. In early to mid summer when conditions are warm and moist, the orange spores spread to new fern growth producing brick red pustules on stalks, branches and leaves of the fern. These develop into powdery masses of rust-red coloured spores which reinfect the fern. Infected fern begins to yellow, defoliate and die back prematurely. In late autumn and winter the red-coloured pustules start to produce black spores and slowly convert in appearance to a powdery mass of jet-black spores. This is the over-wintering stage of Asparagus the fungus and the source of the next seasons infection. Control Stratagies Complete eradication of the disease is not feasible as rust spores are spread by wind. However rust can be controlled with proper fern management. • Scout for early signs for rust and implement fungicide spray program • Volunteer and other unwanted asparagus plantings must be destroyed to control infection sources.

Ug99 Factsheet Updated: May 2010 • Ug99 Is a Single Race of the Fungal Disease Wheat Stem Rust (Puccinia Graminis F
UG99 FACTSHEET Updated: May 2010 • Ug99 is a single race of the fungal disease wheat stem rust (Puccinia graminis f. sp. tritici). • First identified from samples collected in Uganda in 1999, hence the popu- lar name Ug99. Scientifically, using North American nomenclature, the race is termed TTKSK. • Wheat stem rust is historically the most feared and devasting disease af- fecting wheat. Under suitable conditions, yield losses of 70% or more are possible. • Stem rust is highly mobile, spreading over large distances by wind or via accidental human transmission (infected clothing or plant material). • For over 30 years, wheat stem rust has largely been under control prima- rily due to the widespread use of wheat cultivars carrying resistance to the disease. • Ug99 is a special cause for concern because it has overcome the resistance in most wheat cultivars. An estimated 80-90% of all global wheat cultivars growing in farmer’s fields are now susceptible to Ug99 or variants. • Ug99 is the only known race of wheat stem rust that has virulence for an extremely important resistance gene - Sr31. In addition, Ug99 has virulence against most of the resistance genes of wheat origin and other resistance genes from related species. • Six additional races have now been identified in the Ug99 lineage. These all have an identical DNA fingerprint to Ug99, but they show different viru- lence patterns. • Additional key resistance genes have been defeated by these variants, nota- bly; Sr24 (races TTKST and PTKST) and Sr36 (race TTTSK). • Ug99 (race TTKSK) has spread throughout East Africa. In 2006 it was con- firmed in Sudan and Yemen, and in 2007 Ug99 was confirmed in Iran.

Epidemiology of Puccinia hordei and new sources of resistance in barley by Amor Hassine Yahyaoui A thesis submitted in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in Plant Pathology Montana State University © Copyright by Amor Hassine Yahyaoui (1986) Abstract: New virulence types of Puccinia hordei phenotypes were detected in various geographic regions in Tunisia. Highly virulent isolates able to overcome many sources of resistance were identified. The P. hordei virulence types reported in this investigation have not been previously identified. They are important not only because they are virulent on the commonly grown barley cultivars Martin' and 'Ceres', but also because many resistance (Pa) genes are ineffective against these isolates. The effectiveness of Pag to these virulence types is questionable. Pa3 and Pa7 were very effective against all P. hordei isolates tested. The naturally occurring Ornithogalum spp. , in Northern and Northwestern Tunisia, may be a breeding ground for new physiologic races of the P. hordei fungus. Isolates originating from the alternate host were as variable in virulence as those isolated from barleys in the same fields. New genes for resistance to P. hordei appeared to be common in several collections of barley (Hordeum vulgare L.) land race cultivars originating in Central and Southern Tunisia. Response of five land race cultivars to a number of different isolates of P. hordei from the Mediterranean region differentiated them from the known genotypes. A dominant resistance gene that behaved as Pa3 was found in Tu32. Three of the land race cultivars (Tu17, Tu27, and Tu34) each have a dominant resistance gene that is different from the previously known resistance genes.

Japansese Beetle Potential Host Range
Japanese Beetle Potential Host Range in California D. G. Kelch, Ph.D. Primary Botanist, California Department of Food and Agriculture Japanese Beetle (Popillia japonica Newman) is a species introduced into North America that has spread widely throughout the eastern United States. In this area, infestations have proven extremely damaging to horticultural and agricultural plants. Yearly costs for management and mitigation of damage are estimated at US$500 million (USDA 2007). In addition, areas infested with Japanese beetle can be quarantined by trading partners, resulting in losses to farmers and nursery growers mounting into the millions of dollars per year (National Plant Board 2007; Smith et al. 1996). Japanese Beetle is not yet fully established in California, but recent detections in Sacramento County have raised concerns and triggered control activities by agencies tasked with protecting plants from pests. Japanese beetles have a broad range of host plants. The list of plants used as hosts by Japanese beetle contains more than 300 species (Potter & Held 2002). Because the focus has been on Japanese beetle attacks in gardens and lawns, the host list is dominated by garden plants. Most of the information on host susceptibility to Japanese beetle originated from a landmark survey summariZed by Fleming (1972). This rating system was based on written and oral accounts of Japanese beetle feeding damage noted from 1920 through 1963 primarily in the New England area (Fleming 1972). Although poorly documented, there is little doubt that Japanese beetle can attack many other species of plants not included on the host list (Miller et al., 2001; Potter & Held 2002).
