This weekend Kit and Morgan represented the #Purdue #Herbaria at the 140th Meeting of the @inacademyofscience.bsky.social with a poster on the #rustfungi 🌿🍄 of Uganda and other African countries. Great work!

The current global distribution of Pucciniastrum on Soleirolia. I am hoping by the end of the year we can add some more points to this map! The red cross is an absence.

and these are the urediniospores under the microscope. ca 35 um in diameter and with very little color. Good to know it can be found in Wageningen. Next challenge is getting some teliospores under the microscope. #rustfungi

Telia of Puccinia chrysosplenii (goudveilroest) on Chrysosplenium oppositifolium (paarbladig goudveil), near Nijmegen. Have been looking for this species for some time. Glad that @NielsEimers discovered it a few weeks ago. #rustfungi #wildplantdisease

Teliosporen van Akkerkoolroest (Puccinia lapsanae) op Akkerkool (Lapsana communis) vandaag tijdens een wandeling op Landgoed Gerven. Redelijk algemeen en een leuke eerste roest voor het jaar. Deze soort doet niet aan waardwisseling. #rustfungi @waarneming

Nog een schimmel op Akkergeelster (Gagea villosa). Nu een roest; Geelster-vogelmelkroest, Uromyces acutatus (syn. U. ornithogali). Te herkennen aan de wrattige teleosporen met een kleine papil aan de top. Amerongen. #gagea #rustfungi
