A germ-pore is present at the apex of the uppermost ceU, and another exists at the side of the lower cell close to the transverse septum. The teleutospores remain dormant during winter, and cannot be made to germinate until the following spring. Even at the latter period only those germinate which have been exposed to the ordinary changing climatic con- ditions of winter. Teleuto- spores from straw pro- tected in stacks or barns rarely grow. _ , ^ „.....„.,,,„,.
