The Cereal Rusts, Volume I: Origins, Specificity, Structure, and Physiology presents the historical, evolutionary, taxonomic, structural, genetic, and physiological characteristics of cereal rust fungi and the diseases they cause in cereal crops. The cereal rusts are potentially serious disease threats to cereal crops and have caused widespread losses in wheat, oats, barley, and related crops. This three-part volume brings together in a single reference source the accumulated knowledge, complex, challenging science of cereal rusts. The first chapters of this 16-chapter volume cover the pioneering contributions of early scientists to the knowledge of cereal rusts, the evolution of cereal rusts, and the taxonomy of cereal rust fungi. The book also examines the specificity of cereal rusts including formae speciales, race specificity, pathogen-host genetics, histology and molecular biology of host parasite specificity, and the genetics of rust fungus populations as reflected by virulence frequency. The text further discusses the structure and physiology aspects; the germination of urediospores and differentiation of infection structures; and the infection under artificial conditions. The ultrastructure of hyphae and urediospores; the development and physiology of teliospores; and the obligate parasitism and axenic culture of rust fungi are also explained. This volume also encompasses the structure and physiology of haustoria; structural and physiological alterations in susceptible hosts; and effects of rust on plant development in relation to nutrient translocation. Cereal rust investigators, plant pathologists, agronomists, agriculturalists, research biochemists, cytologists, geneticists, physiologists, taxonomists, epidemiologists, and pathologists will find this book invaluable.

A Study in Cereal Rusts investigates the different strains (or races) of cereal rust, a fungal disease that affects wheat, barley, and other grains. Stakman's research was crucial to understanding the pathophysiology of these diseases and laid the groundwork for modern plant pathology.

Excerpt from A Study in Cereal Rusts; Physiological Races: A Thesis Submitted to the Faculty of the Graduate School of the University of Minnesota Cereal rusts were known as destructive plant pests by the ancients. Observations were made on the effect of weather and location on their prevalence. The comparative susceptibility of the various cereals received some attention. Theophrastus speaks of the varying susceptibility of different cereals, as does Pliny, who says that barley is less likely to rust than are other grains. In modern times many observations have been made, but many of these were only incidental. Dietel (1887) calls attention to a certain amount of morphological and physiological variation in rust fungi, but does not definitely establish the fact that there are distinct biologic forms. Previous to his time Puccinia graminis Pers. was considered a single species found on cereals and various grasses. However, in 1894 Eriksson (1894-1) showed that, although the morphology of the fungus on the different cereal hosts varied but slightly, there was a distinct specialization in parasitism. He therefore divided the different species of rusts into subdivisions which he termed "formae speciales." Puccinia graminis, the only species extensively used in the present investigation, he divided into five formae speciales, two of which he mentioned as being sharply demarcated and the remainder as being probably also distinct. All of these forms of Puccinia graminis were capable of producing aecidia on various species of Berberis. It therefore occurred to Eriksson that perhaps his formae speciales would be equalized when grown upon the alternate host. This, however, he found not to be the case. He concluded that the forms were physiologically distinct even when grown upon Berberis. In fact he was led to believe that they became more firmly fixed after a period on the barberry. This discovery stimulated much research concerning the physiological relationships of the Uredineae. About the Publisher Forgotten Books publishes hundreds of thousands of rare and classic books.
