Project description:Rust fungi infecting hollyhock and other plants in Malveae are frequently intercepted at ports of entry to the USA, particularly Puccinia malvacearum and P. heterogenea. These two species can be difficult to distinguish and can be further confused with other, less common species of microcyclic rust fungi infecting hollyhock: P. heterospora, P. lobata, P. platyspora, and P. sherardiana. Molecular phylogenetic analysis revealed that P. malvacearum and P. heterogenea are closely related, along with P. sherardiana and P. platyspora. A key to the six microcyclic Puccinia species infecting hollyhock is presented.
Project description:Elucidating the genetic control of development of C3 and C4 photosynthesis. Atriplex rosea (C4) and Atriplex prostrata (C3) were studied along a leaf developmental gradient to compare development between C3 and C4. C3 Atriplex prostrata x C4 Atriplex rosea F1 hybrid were studied along the same developmental gradient and will aid in identifying regulatory elements involved in C3 and C4 leaf development.
