Pucciniosira is a genus of rust fungi belonging to the family Pucciniosiraceae. [2] [3] [4]

Contents

The type species is Pucciniosira triumfettaeLagerh., 1892 which is now Pucciniosira pallidula. [5]

The Pucciniosira species are characterized by having Puccinia -like teliospores that are produced in chains alternately with intercalary cells. The sori have a continuous to rudimentary peridium (protective layer). In some species, the teliospores break easily into halves along their septa. [6] They form circular groups of rust spores on the lower surfaces of the leaves of various species of plants (including solanum species). [7]

The genus name of Pucciniosira is in honour of Tommaso Puccini (1666-1735), who was an Italian botanist and doctor. He taught Anatomy at Hospital of Santa Maria Nuova in Florence. [8]

Distribution

The species of this genus are found in America (including north America, [9] [10] Ecuador, [7] Honduras, [11] Guatemala, [12] Panama, [13] and Mexico, [14] ) and Africa (including Nigeria, [15] ) , [2] as well as New Zealand, [16] and Australia (Gold Coast). [17]

Ecology

In Veracruz within Mexico, species Pucciniosira pallidula(Speg.) Henn. (1896) infects Heliocarpus donnellsmithii Rose. [14] Pucciniosira pallidula was also found on Triumfetta semitrilobaJacq. in Florida, USA. [9]

In Panama, species Pucciniosira dorata is found on Triumfetta bogotensis (in Malvaceae family) [13]

Pucciniosira holwayiH.S. Jacks. (1932) is found on Solanum laxiflorum (a synonym of Solanum barbeyanum [18] ) in Brazil. As well as Pucciniosira hyphoperidiataViégas (1945) which is found on various solanum species. Pucciniosira solaniLagerh. ex Sacc. (1895) causes yellow leaf rust on solanum species in Brazil and Ecuador. [7]
