Yellow Rust Parasite on Wheat.


An instructive account is published
in the Experiment Record of the De
partment Of Agriculture of the manner
in which the yellow rust parasite acts
upon susceptible and resistant varieties
Of wheat. In an experiment with Mich
igan Bronze wheat. and ''ruSt-proof'
Eingorn, young seedlings Of each were
infected by placing spores on the leaves.
In the Michigan wheat the germ tubes
passed into the inner tissues and deyel-
oped rapidly, producing pustules in
about ten days. In the case of the re-
siStant Eingon wheat the germ tubes
made good their entry. but almost in
the beginning showed, through the mi
croscope, weakness and starvation, and
were unable to make further progress
The wheat plant continued to flourish
except for the small dead area where
the fungus entered the leaves. The rea-
son for this resistance is unknown. but
is supposed TO be due to some toxic
principles in the host plant.
