(v. Tubeuf phot.) seedlings as well as growing points and other young parts of older plants. Infection may take place on any immature part of the host. The mycelium does not grow through the whole plant, but only inhabits a part in the vicinity of the place infected. The heads are most frequently attacked, with the result that the grain fails to reach maturity, or is destroyed during the formation of fungus-spores. Owing to the danger of infection, grain mixed with smut- spores should never be used for sowing; nor can such be safely used for feeding cattle on account of its injurious effects on Please note that these images are extracted from scanned page images that may have been digitally enhanced for readability - coloration and appearance of these illustrations may not perfectly resemble the original Tubeuf, Karl, freiherr von, 1862-1941; Smith, William G.
