Rust fungus. Macrophotograph of a yellow rust fungus (Puccinia sessilis) infecting a leaf of Arum maculatum. The fruiting bodies (orange) release reproductive spores. The growth of the fruiting bodies ruptures the epidermal surface of the leaf to produce the lesion seen. Rust fungi are plant parasites. This fungus is called Ramsons and Arum rust after two plants it is prone to infect. Magnification: x3.5 at 35mm size | |
