1 The crown - rust fungus has changed continuously in response to the living substrate provided by man.

2 Brazilian farmers are also continuing to battle Asian rust fungus.

3 Asian rust fungus now has been identified in 128 municipalities across Brazil's agricultural belt, up from 88 two weeks ago, Brazil's government pathologists report.

4 The ultrastructural features of wheat interacting with stripe rust fungus were studied by using typical wheat cultivars of high-temperature resistance to rust as experimental material.

5 The above results indicated that sugar sides in different structures of wheat stripe rust fungus were not the same.

6 These results demonstrated that wheat PAL played an important role in the induced resistance response upon infection with stem rust fungus at transcription level.

7 It was speculated that TAOEC01 was involved in the interaction of stripe rust fungus and wheat by regulating the energy metabolism.

8 A reddish, pustulelike structure that is formed on the tissue of a plant infected by a rust fungus and produces uredospores.

9 Taken together, ZF001 might play a key role as a transcription factor in the interaction of stripe rust fungus and wheat.

10 The report warns that a strain of the wheat stem rust fungus discovered in Uganda in 1999 will almost certainly spread to the rest of the world, potentially creating a global food-security crisis.
