A Study Of The Environmental Conditions Influencing The Development Of Stem Rust In The Absence Of An Alternate Host. Ii. Infection Studies With Puccinia Graminis Tritici Form Iii And Form Ix, George L. Peltier
Historical Research Bulletins of the Nebraska Agricultural Experiment Station
Stakman and Levine have shown that Puccinia graminis tritici (Pers.) Erikss. and Henn. consists of a number of biologic forms, which can be determined by their action on different varieties of Triticum species. To date 37 such biologic forms have been identified by them through the parasitic action on 12 differential hosts chosen from a large number of varieties of Triticum species. To determine whether these biologic forms remain constant in their behavior under various environmental conditions, a detailed study of the host-parasite relation was undertaken with 2 of these forms. At the same time an opportunity was afforded to …
