Description
Summary:The occurrence of a race of U. striatus on this crop is noted from Qd. Cross inoculations indicated physiological specialization. Isolates from Cicer arietinum were also pathogenic to lucerne, while seedlings of Medicago lupulina showed resistance, though susceptible to a lucerne isolate. The rust developed poorly on cv. Tyson and it is unlikely that it will be a problem in commercial C. arietinum plantings unless susceptible lines become widely grown. In addition, winter-grown crops would probably escape infection because of the opt. temp. range for infection by U. striatus.

Bibliography:Australasian Plant Pathology publishes new and significant research in all fields of plant pathology. Distribution and readership of the journal is worldwide, but emphasis is placed on strengthening its role as the major publishing outlet in the Australasian region. Australasia is interpreted in the broadest sense to include not only Australia, New Zealand and Papua New Guinea, but also the Indian Ocean, Pacific and Asian regions
