The wheat plant is not killed by the attack of the fungus which, however, prevents the reserve foods from being properly stored in the grains; hence, they are mushy and unfit for storage, or for bread- making purposes. It has been recently shown that in Australia and the plains of India, where the barberry is unknown, the black rust of wheat does serious danjage. Three methods are open to the wheat rust to winter over: (i) The fungus may winter by its urediniospores, (2) by a perennial mycelium, (3) by Eriksson's mycoplasm. Arthur, in Amer? ica, and others have shown that it winters by its urediniospores, or.
