About Puccinia triticina
Puccinia triticina causes 'wheat leaf rust', a fungal disease that infects wheat. It is the most common wheat disease and ocurrs in most wheat growing regions. The fungus is an obligate parasite producing infectious urediniospores that can infect plants hundreds of kilometers away when carried by the wind.
