“…Based on the observed number of natural infections of C. ribicola on the test plants, P. strobus was the most susceptible host to C. ribicola, while P. peuce was only extremely weakly susceptible, and P. cembra was completely resistant to the rust. This is in accordance with recent European studies about the susceptibility of these hosts to C. ribicola (Blada, 1990, Stephan, 2004.…”

“…Plantings of Weymouth pine in northern and central Europe are now uncommon outside of gardens and resistance trials (S chmitt 1972; K irisits 2007). Endemic white pines persist in the Alps, Balkans, and Carpathians of southern Europe (B lada 1990; R adu 2008). Although C. ribicola still threatens white pines in regions favourable for infestation, R adu (2008) argued that disease control can be successful with silvicultural management and genetic improvement.…”

White pines, Ribes, and blister rust: a review and synthesis

2010

For over a century, white pine blister rust (Cronartium ribicola) has linked white pines (Strobus) with currants and gooseberries (Ribes) in a complex and serious disease epidemic in Asia, Europe, and North America. Because of ongoing changes in climate, societal demands for forests and their amenities, and scientific advances in genetics and proteomics, our current understanding and management of the white pine blister rust pathosystem has become outdated. Here, we present a review and synthesis of international scope on the biology and management of blister rust, white pines, Ribes, and other hosts. In this article, we provide a geographical and historical background, describe the taxonomy and life cycle of the rust, discuss pathology and ecology, and introduce a series of invited papers. These review articles summarize the literature on white pines, Ribes, and blister rust with respect to their status, threats, and management through genetics and silviculture. Although the principal focus is on North America, the different epidemics in Europe and Asia are also described. In the final article, we discuss several of the key observations and conclusions from the preceding review articles and identify prudent actions for research and management of white pine blister rust.

“…causes white pine blister rust (WPBR), a severe disease affecting five-needle pines in the northern hemisphere (Stephan and Hyun 1983;Blada 1990;Stephan 2004). In Finland, WPBR destroyed most of the five-needle pine plantations in the 1800s and 1900s (Liro 1908;Heikinheimo 1956;Lähde et al 1984), but susceptible species can still be found growing in arboreta, botanical gardens, parks, and along roadsides.…”

Attached and detached leaves of 60 potential host species were inoculated in the greenhouse and laboratory with aeciospores of Cronartium ribicola J.C. Fisch. from six Finnish locations and of Cronartium flaccidum (Alb. & Schw.) Wint. from 20 locations in Finland and Sweden in 2011. Candidate hosts represented 16 plant families: Solanaceae, Verbenaceae, Asclepiadaceae, Grossulariaceae, Paeoniaceae, Balsaminaceae, Gentianaceae, Scrophulariaceae, Loasaceae, Tropaeolaceae, Acanthaceae, Myricaceae, Phrymaceae, Plantaginaceae, Orobanchaceae, and Apocynaceae. Inoculations of C. flaccidum produced uredinia after 2 weeks and (or) telia after 4 weeks of incubation on 25 hosts. Inoculation trials identified several new hosts for C. flaccidum in Fennoscandia, namely Impatiens balsamina, Swertia fedtschenkoana, Loasa tricolor, Myrica gale, Verbena canadensis, Saxifraga spp., Paeonia obovata, and Veronica daurica. Myricaceae and Saxifragaceae represent new host families for these rusts. Cronartium ribicola formed uredinia or telia on 10 species: Ribes spp. (7 species/cultivars), Pedicularis palustris subsp. palustris, Bartsia alpina, and Loasa triphylla. Results suggest wider alternate host ranges for both C. flaccidum and C. ribicola than previously recognized. Spores were virulent regardless of their source location, suggesting a lack of host-specificity among Fennoscandian populations of Cronartium.Key words: alternate hosts, Scots pine blister rust, white pine blister rust.
