Fischer proved that it has only the one spore-form : he gives {) figures showing the effect upon the leaf of an infection by the basidiospores. Accord- ing to him, the teleutospores germinate in spring, and infect the delicate young leaves. The mycelium grows slowly. During the summer and autumn the infected spot becomes much thickened : the sori are produced in late autumn or during the following winter. This is exactly in accordance with the suggestion made by Plowright (^.c), without any experi- mental evidence being at that time Fig. 153. P. Teleutospores. Distribution : Europe and Persia. 78.
