THE WINTERING OF UREDOMYCELIA OF WHEAT RUST,
Abstract
Mycelia of the causative agent of stem rust in wheat are not killed by low air temperatures in the winter, except when there is no snow covering. With a snow covering of 17-20 cm, mycelia in the plants can pass the winter and create local, early sources of primary infection. (Author)
