Temperature sensitivity of qualitative race‐cultivar interactions in Melampsora medusae Thüm. and Populus species
S. J. Singh,W. A. Heather +1 more
TL;DR: Six mono-uredospore isolates (races) of Melampsora medusae Thiim produced qualitatively distinct reactions, in vitro, when incubated at 15 °C on leaf disks of certain cultivars of Populus deltoides Marsh, suggesting differential race-cultivar-temperature interaction in the epidemiology of M.medusae.

In vitro and in vivo germination of spores of Marssonina brunnea (Ell. et Ev.) P. Magn.
TL;DR: Among the poplar clones examined there was no correlation between spore germination on leaf discs and the disease reaction of the discs under controlled conditions, however under these conditions the disease development on Leaf discs taken from clone I-69/55 was correlated with the high resistance of this clone to Marssonina leaf spot in the field.
