Abstract

Puccinia miscanthi teliospores were observed on the leaf surface of Miscanthus sinensis using a field emission scanning electron microscope. Details of teliospore mucilage could be visualized through the axial imaging of secondary electrons for a better understanding of pathogen behavior in rust diseases.
