Both bark and wood sections obtained, by cutting with a razor blade, from living tissue of Cronartium ribicola cankers of Korean white pine (Pinus koraiensis) were transferred to a mixture of 2 parts of chloroform and 1 part of methanol, and the sections were stained using a modified lactophenol cotton blue. The formula for this staining is as follows: Lactic acid 20gm, phenol crystal 20gm, cotton blue 0.05gm, and 60% EtOH 100ml. The rust hyphae and haustoria were stained blue, and the wide hyphae with straight or curved haustoria could be distingwished from the pine tissue.

This study was conducted to examine the effect of nighttime ventilation and heating on changes in temperature and humidity, the occurrence of white rust, and growth of standard chrysanthemum (Dendranthema grandiflorum) 'Baekma' in a greenhouse. For the ventilation treatments, the mean nighttime humidity in the control greenhouse, which had a closed side window, was higher (94.5%), but the humidity in the natural and natural+fan ventilation treatments was lower (74.3% and 72.8%, respectively). The rate of occurrence of white rust at 34 days after treatment was 100, 98.3, 75.6, and 43.3% for the control, fan ventilation, natural ventilation, and natural+fan ventilation treatments, respectively. The number of infected leaves and telia were the lowest in the natural+fan ventilation treatment compared with the other treatments. The growth of the chrysanthemum 'Baekma' was significantly suppressed in the control because of the occurrence of white rust and high humidity, while plant height, number of leaves, stem diameter, and fresh weight were the greatest in the natural+fan ventilation treatment. For the heating treatments, the mean nighttime temperature of the control (RH 95% heating), which was heating and held at 95% humidity, was $18.4^{\circ}C$, while the temperature of the heating treatment, which was held at 70% relative humidity (RH 70% heating) was $25.8^{\circ}C$. The rate of occurrence of white rust (34.4%), number of infected leaves (0.9), and telia (1.0) were the lowest in the RH 70% heating treatment compared with the other heating conditions. Also, the RH 70% heating treatment showed the best growth in terms of plant height, stem diameter, number of leaves, and fresh weight. Therefore, the natural+fan ventilation and RH 70% heating treatments were effective for the control of white rust and the growth of standard chrysanthemum 'Baekma' in a greenhouse.

Rust-spot on North American ginseng roots (Panax quinquefolius L.) is considered a physiological, not a pathological disorder. Ginseng rust-spot starts as an orange spot on the surface of the root and may spread forming a sunken, round to irregular lesion. 5 mm in diameter. Pieces of root, 7 mm in length and containing a rust-spotted lesion, were embedded in agar and sectioned using a vibratome. These sections and hand sections, cut with a two-sided razor blade, were examined using fluorescence microscopy. The 4-5 cell layers of the periderm were destroyed in the area of the lesion and orange substance:, were deposited in and around the lesion. Sections stained with vanillin-HCI and viewed using bright field microscopy confirmed that the orange substances were phenolic compounds. Scanning electron micros-copy showed that the periderm had pulled away from the root, or was completely destroyed, in the area of the lesion. The smooth surface of the lesion indicates the deposition of phenolic compounds in surrounding cells as a wound response. Roots sprayed or dipped in ethephon (1500 mgㆍL$^{-1}$ ) developed rust-spots, more so at 21$\pm$2$^{\circ}C$ than at 3$\pm$0.2$^{\circ}C$. Roots held at 21$\pm$2$^{\circ}C$ were yellowish and developed white cell proliferations. Comparable control roots also developed rust-spots likely due to the high undecomposed organic matter content of the incubation soilless mix.

Korean white pine (Pinus koraiensis Sieb. & Zucc.), native to Korea and currently the most important timber species in Korea is being threatened by a blister rust discase caused by a Cronartium species. The fungus has been tentatively identified as Cronartium ribicola Fischer. The fungus alternates between P. koraiensis and Pedicularis resupinata L. (a herbaceous perennial) under natural conditions in Korea although experimentally it has been shown to infect several Ribes species. The taxonomic diagnosis of the causal fungus is not fully resolved. A review of the status of this rust disease on P. koraiensis and other possible hosts in Korea and its potential international significance along with present work underway in Korea is discussed.

A new spray chrysanthemum cultivar 'Snow Bowl' was released by National Institute of Horticultural & Herbal Science(NIHHS), Rural Development Administration (RDA), in 2008. The cross was made in 2005 between '03B1-230', breeding lines of NIHHS and 'Sei-Alps'. Trials were conducted from 2006 to 2008 for the evaluation and selection of this cultivar, including shading cultures in summer and retarding cultures in spring. The natural flowering time of 'Snow Bowl' is late October, but year-round flowering is possible by photo-periodic control. It has single type flowers with white petals. The growth of plant is very vigorous and it is resistant to white rust. The diameter of flower is 6.3cm. Number of flowers per stem and petals per flower are 12 and 31, respectively. Days to flowering under the short day treatment is about 59 and its vase life is 24.1 days in autumn season. 'Snow Bowl' was applied as No. 2009-179 on February 18, 2009 for variety protection and the plant variety protection rights have been registered as No. 3239 on August 3, 2010 at the Korea Seed and Variety Service.

Pedicularis spp. are the alternate hosts of the white pine blister rust fungi in the forests of Korea, and Ribes spp. were found as other alternate hosts by artificial inoculation test. New biotypes (races) with different host selectivity and pathogenicity of the causal fungi were speculated at various places in Korea. The aeciospores of the fungi were collected from two isolated places, Pyeongchang and Namwoen, and artificially inoculated on Pedicularis resupinata and six species of the genus Ribes. Among the tested alternate host species, P. resupinata and R. montigenum were only susceptible to both the Pyeongchang population and the Namwoen population, showing similar pathogencity between the two fungai populations. Three white pine species were planted in fungus-infested stands to study the susceptibility of each tree species. Four years later, 17.7% of Pinus koraiensis and 26.3% of the P. strobus were infected, but P. parviflora was free from attack. From the above results, it was concluded that the white pine blister rust fungus populations in Korea are of the same biotype, with P. koraiensis and P. strobus as aecial hosts, and Pedicularis spp. and Ribes spp. as telial hosts.

Rust diseases were found on safflower (Carthamus thinctorius) fields located in Euisong-gun Gyengbuk province in Korea. The infection rate of the disease in surveyed area was about 15% in 2001. The typical symptoms of the disease appeared first as small white spots on the leaf and turn brownish, dark brown spores revealed on them. Uredospores were light brown in color, ellipsoid or spherical in shape and 21~23 ${\times}$ 21~25${\mu}m$ in size. Teliospores were chestnut-brown in color, ellipsoid or ovoid in shape and 35~40 ${\times}$ 27~33${\mu}m$ in size. Pedicels were non-color of limpidness in color and 15~30${\mu}m$ in size. The causal fungus was identified as Puccinia carthami, based on morphological charateristics. This is first report on the rust of safflower caused by Puccinia carthami in Korea.

Rust disease was found on broad bean (Vuia faba) in several farmer's fields located in Changseon-myon, Nam-hae-gun, Gyeongnam province in Korea. The infection rate of the disease in the surveyed area was 84.3% in 2002. The typical symptoms of the disease appeared first as small, white spots on leaves, stems and pods. Spots, then turn brownish, their edges rised slightly, and powdery mass of yellowish brown spores revealed on them. Severely infected leaves were eventually defoliated. Uredospores were light brown in color, ellipsoid or ovoid in shape and 24~38$\times$21~26 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. Teliospores were dark brown in color, ellipsoid or ovoid in shape and 22~42$\times$17~27 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. Pedicels were sienna to luteous in color and 52~116 ${\mu}{\textrm}{m}$ in size. The causal fungus was identified as Uromyces viciae-fabae, based on morphological characteristics. This is the first report on the rust of broad bean caused by Uromyces viciae-faae in Korea.
