Uromyces is a genus of rust fungi in the family Pucciniaceae. The genus was described by Franz Unger in his 1833 work Die Exantheme der Pflanzen. They have a worldwide distribution but large occurrences happen in North America and Europe. [2]
The genus is the second-largest plant pathogenic rust genus, which is responsible for various plant affecting diseases, and it has major effects on both agricultural and non-agricultural plants. The genus is generally characterized by its unicellular teliospores (thick-walled resting spores) that help to characterize it and distinguish it from another important and large rust genus, Puccinia. [3]
The Uromyces fungal species have been recorded on various host plants belonging to a wide range of the families, including Asteraceae, Euphorbiaceae, Fabaceae, Liliaceae, Loranthaceae, and Poaceae. Family Loranthaceae is listed to be the most affected by the fungus. [3]
Species
As of 2023 August 22 [update], the GBIF lists up to 1,048 species, [2] while Species Fungorum lists about 1,239 species (with many former species). [4] The Encyclopedia of Life lists 969 species. [5]
Selected species in the genus Uromyces include:
- Uromyces apiosporus
- Uromyces appendiculatus
- Uromyces betae - beet rust
- Uromyces beticola - bean rust
- Uromyces ciceris-arietini - chickpea rust
- Uromyces dianthi carnation rust
- Uromyces elegans
- Uromyces euphorbiae
- Uromyces graminis
- Uromyces inconspicuus
- Uromyces medicaginis
- Uromyces musae
- Uromyces oblongus
- Uromyces pisi-sativi - pea rust
- Uromyces straitus - alfalfa or lucerne rust
- Uromyces trifolii-repentis - clover rust
- Uromyces vignae - cowpea rust
