98 THE BRITISH SMUT FUNGI Tlrocystis gladiolicola Ainsworth Gladiolus Smut Urocystis gladiolicola Ainsworth, Trans. Brit, mycol. Sdc, xxxii, p. 257, 1950. Sori in the leaves, as dark brown blisters paraUelwith the jv^eins, 1 mm. to several cm. in length, the epidermis rupturing to expose the spores, and in the corms. Spore mass powdery, dark brown. Spore balls globose, 154-28 ft diam., each composed of one or two spores completely surrounded by a rstther irregular layer of colourless sterile cells, 6-10 [i diam. Spores globose or sU'ghtly angled, reddishbro%vn, 12-18 ju. diam. On cultivated Gladiolus. June, Dec. Somerset, Cornwall. Spore germination. Unknown. The fungus on which W. G. Smith based Urocystis gladioli W. G. Sm. was a species of Papulaspora (see Ainsworth, 1950). Urocystis hepaticae-trilobae (DC.) Ainsworth & Sampson, comb. nov. Uredo ranunculacearum 8 hepaticae-trilobae De CandoUe, Flor. franc, vi, p. 75, 1815. Tuburcinia hepaticae-trilobae (DC.) Liro, 1922. Sori in the leaves as blister-like swellings beneath the epidermis which ruptures to expose the spores. Spore mass powdery, black. Spore balls rather irregular, 21-52 n diam., each composed of one to seven (usually three to five) spores partially surrounded by yellowish-tinted, sterile cells, 10-13 /ix diam. Spores globose, angular or somewhat elongated, dark brown, smooth, 14-19 JJ. diam. On Hepatica pennsylvanica, Kew Gardens, 1890 [as Urocystis pompholygodesi, [Herb. Kew.]. Infection of the Iwst. Markova (1927) found that spores from Hepatica triloba would not infect Trollius europaeus, Anemone spp., or Ranunculus spp. Urocystis junci Lagerh. Urocystis junci Lagerheim, genuina Lagerheim, Botaniska Notiser 1888, p. 210. Tuburcinia junci (Lagerh.) Liro, 1922. Sori inside the lower parts of the stems which finally rupture. Spore mass powdery, brownish black.

Spores globose to ellipsoidal, yellowish, smooth, 12-16 n diam. On Juncus acutus. Burnfen Broad, Norfolk, 2.viii.l945, E. A. Ellis {Trans. Norf. Norwich Nat. Soc., xvi, p, 175, 1946 [Herb. I.M.I. 582]). Spore germination. Unknown. Urocystis occulta (Walk.) Rabenh. Stripe Smut of Rye Erysibe occulta Wallroth, Flor. Crypt. Qerm., ii, p. 212, 1833. Uredo parallela Berkeley, 1836.

THE BRITISH SMUT FUNGI 99 Urocystis occulta (Wallr.) Rabenhorst in Klotzsch, Herb. viv. myc, ii, No. 393, 1856. Urocystis parallela (Berk.) Fischer von Waldheim, 1870. Tufmrcinia occulta (Wallr.) Lire, 1922. Sori in the leaves, culms, and inflorescence as very long, dark, linear blisters parallel with the veins, at first covered by the epidermis which later ruptures to expose the spores. Spore mass powdery, dark reddish-brown. Spore halls globose to somewhat elongated, 15-26 /A long, each composed of one or two (rarely three or four) spores, completely or, frequently, incompletely surrounded by a layer of hyaline or tinted sterile cells, 5-10 /x, diam. Spores globose or angled, flattened on side of contact, reddish-brown, smooth, 12-16 fi diam. (Fig. 18). On Secale cereale (rye) causing Stripe Smut. June. England. Uncommon. (Spore germination. Germination has been described and figured by Kiihn (1858), Wolf (1873), Brefeld (1883), and more recently by Ling (1940 a) and Stakman, Cassell, & Moore (1934). According to the last-named, spores germinated best after soaking for 16 hours in water to which benzaldehyde had been added (three parts in 2,000,000), and a temperature of 24° C. favoured development. The promycelia varied in length and septation, the longest consisting of ten to fifteen cells with protoplasm '°" gpores^'^x^oo! only in the apical one. Fusion between the promyceUal branches occurred at the base, apex, or by H -shaped connexions in the middle, but a study of nuclear behaviour suggested that the dicaryophase can be initiated not only by fusion but, rarely, by the direct passage of two nuclei from the promycelium into one of its branches or by the union of two cells in fairly long hyphae (Fig. 17 e). Infection of the host during germination of the seed, first demonstrated by Wolff (1873, 1874 a), has been confirmed by many workers. Racial specialization. Agropyron caninum, A. inernie, Elymus canadensis, and E. triticoides were infected by stripe smut from rye while wheat was immune (Fischer & Holton, 1943). Urocystis sorosporioides Kom. Urocystis sorosporioides Kornicke in Fuckel, Symb. mycol.,Nachtr., iii, p. 10,1876. Tuburcinia sorosporioides (Korn.) Liro, 1922. Sori in the leaves as blister-like swellings beneath the epidermis which finally ruptures; less frequently in the petioles and stems. Spore mass powdery, black. Spore balls spherical to ellipsoidal, dark brown, opaque, 26-38 /i diam., each composed of three to seven spores completely surrounded by somewhat elongated, yellowish, sterile cells, 8-10 fi diam. Spores sub-globose, usually angled by mutual pressure, brown, smooth, 10-14 jx diam. On Thalictrum mimis and its var. inaritima. June. England (Lanes.), Scotland (Aberdeens.). Eare. Spore germination. Unknown.
