This is the case in twigs of silver fir witches' brooms, in young swellings of juniper attacked by Gyvinosporangium, and in the thickened twigs of Albizzia resulting from Uromyces Tepperianii^ (^ig- 181). There may be, however, a distinctly increased growth of the wood. Thus, with attacks of Gymnosporangium frequenting juniper, especially G. sdbinae, there is often a marked thickening of branches due to increase in the xylem-elements. Again, one finds cankers due to Aecidium, elatimtm, accompanied by stem- swellings with a diameter twice or three times that of the normal, and in which the bark and bast form but a thin layer in proportion to the part made up by the wood. Exceptionally striking are the gigantic woody knots formed on the Japanese Pinus densifiora, and P. Thunbergii affected by Peri- dermium giganteum (Fig. 15). Wakker found that mu- cilage canals of Ehamnus Frangula affected by Aeci- dium were not so well developed as in normal twigs. Eesin-canals are often irregularly formed and ab- Fin. 15.âWood-swelling on Pinus dmsijlora, attacked normally multiplied in COU- at this place by Peridermium giganteum. J natural size. "^ (r.

A particularly noticeable flux of resin takes place from pine-bark in presence of Peridermium pini; the mycelium grows in the medullary rays and res
