Abstract:Limb rust is a killing disease of hard pines caused by Peridermium spp. Study of tissue sections shows that growth of limb rust fungi differs from growth of other plant rusts: (1) longitudinal spread is mainly by hyphal growth within host tracheids; (2) hyphae grow radially in mature xylem, deep in host sapwood; (3) in larger stems mycelia avoid (rather than concentrate in) bark and outer xylem rings; and (4) mycelia become much larger than any previously described for rust fungi. Antibiotics being tested as therapeutants are unlikely to be effective against such deep-seated mycelia.
