Rust fungi (Uredinales, Basidiomycetes) are one of the most diverse and economi- cally important plant-obligated parasites. Taxonomy of this group has been under revision during the last years using molecular techniques to define phylogenetic relationships. In this study we evaluated the phylogenetic affinities of a group of 40 rust fungi obtained from different plants in the Colombian Andean region using sequence analysis of the 28S ribosomal DNA, specifically D1/D2 domains. Comparisons were undertaken with sequences of rust fungi from around the world deposited in the GenBank database. An alignment of sequences was used to build a phylogenetic tree through Maximum parsimony analysis. Our results support the taxo- nomical validity of families Pucciniaceae, Phakopsoraceae, Phragmidiaceae, Pileolariaceae, Mikronegeriaceae, Coleosporiaceae and Cronartiaceae, while Pucciniosiraceae represents redundant taxa with Pucciniaceae. The analyses indicated that Uropyxidaceae, Raveneliaceae, Chaconiaceae and Pucciniastraceae correspond to poly- phyletic families. Melampsoraceae appear to be a basal taxon to the Uredinales. Information obtained in this study will be useful to incorporate a higher number of sequences from tropical rust fungi within global efforts to redefine the taxonomy of order Uredinales. Additionally, we propose to give priority to future phylogenetic studies of taxa: Gerwasia, Hemileia, Phragmidium, Prospodium, Puccinia and Uromyces, genera that include a high number of rust fungi from the tropics.

A single species of rust fungi may produce up to five morphologically and cytologically distinct spore-producing structures thereby attracting the interest of mycologist for centuries. In India, the research on rust fungi started with the arrival of foreign visiting scientists or emigrant experts, mainly from Britain who collected fungi and sent specimens to European laboratories for identification. Later on, a number of mycologists from India and abroad studied Indian rust fungi and contributed a lot to knowledge of the rusts to the Indian Mycobiota.

Reinhard Berndt Received: 27 July 2011 / Accepted: 21 December 2011 / Published online: 22 January 2012 Ó Springer Science+Business Media B.V. 2012 Abstract The species richness of rust fungi (Pucciniales or Uredinales) in the neotropics is reviewed. Species numbers are presented for all neotropical countries and rust-plant- ratios calculated. It is discussed whether the ratio for a given region can be explained by the species richness of vascular plants alone or whether it is caused by additional factors. In the first case, ratios should apply globally and vary only slightly; in the second case, more diverging ratios are expected. Observed ratios ranged between 1:16 and 1:124 in the neotropics. The large differences are certainly influenced by unequal levels of investiga- tion, rendering interpretation difficult. Differences seem also to be influenced by the tax- onomic composition of floras regarding the percentage of host families or genera bearing different numbers of rust species.

  • 39. Blueberry Leaf Rust
    Wild Blueberry in a Context of Production Guide... Sustainable Development 39. Blueberry Leaf Rust Latin name: Naohidemyces vaccinii (Wint.) Sato, Katsuya et Hiratsuka (Thekopsora minima, Pucciniastrum vaccinii) French name: La rouille Blueberry leaf rust is present in most Québec blueberry fi elds, and its incidence seems to be increasing. It is generally found in one or more sections of a fi eld, often in association with other leaf infections such as powdery mildew and Septoria leaf spot. It has a growing tendency to spread throughout a fi eld where it is present, and infects fi elds both in growth years and crop years. It is characterized as rust-coloured pustules on the underside of leaves. So far in Québec, no infection of blueberry leaf rust alone has required fungicide treatment. DESCRIPTION The incidence of blueberry leaf rust starts to intensify in mid-July. For this reason it has little effect on fi elds that are in a crop year, since harvesting normally occurs in August. In a growth year however, leaf rust can cause extensive leaf spotting and premature leaf drop. By early September there can be signifi cant defoliation, and in severely affected fi elds the production of fl oral buds can be reduced by 30% or more. The symptoms are similar to other leaf diseases, consisting of brown spots in a variety of shapes and sizes, accompanied or not by the leaves turning yellow. However, blueberry leaf rust is easily distinguished by the pustules of rust on the underside of leaves (Figure 1). This fungus produces various types of spores and infections.

    1) Express – PRA for Thekopsora minima - Occurrence - Prepared by: Julius Kühn-Institute, Institute for Plant Health on: 4 June, 2015, Dr. Gritta Schrader; Dr. Wolfgang Maier (Institute for Epidemiology and Pathogen Diagnostics) (translated by Elke Vogt-Arndt) Initiation: Occurrence of blueberry rust on blueberries (Vaccinium corymbosum) in a nursery in Lower Saxony Express - PRA Thekopsora minima P. Syd. & Syd. 1915 Phytosanitary Risk for high medium low Germany Phytosanitary Risk for high medium low EU-MS Certainty of Assessment high medium low Conclusion The fungus Thekopsora minima is endemic in eastern North America and Japan and is not yet established in Germany. In 2002, it presumably was found for the first time in the EU in Southwest Spain but was wrongly identified as the endemic Pucciniastrum vaccinii (Naohidemyces vaccinii). Up to now T. minima is neither listed in the Annexes of the Dir. 2000/29/EC nor by EPPO. Thekopsora minima infests the highbush blueberry Vaccinium corymbosum which is native to North America and various Rhododendrons and Azaleae as well as various further genera of Ericaceae. Two Tsuga-species are alternating hosts. It can be assumed that due to suitable climate conditions Thekopsora minima is capable to establish outdoors in Germany. An establishment in South European EU-Member States would also be possible. Due to its damage potential for cultivated blueberries, Rhododendrons and other Ericaceae, Thekopsora minima poses a considerable phytosanitary risk for Germany and other EU- Member States. Based on this risk analysis, it can be assumed that the pest is able to establish and cause considerable damage in Germany or other Member States.
