First seedling leaves of Little Club (susceptible), Khapli I (moderately susceptible), and Khapli (resistant) wheats were inoculated with Puccinia graminis tritici Erikss. and Henn. (Race 15B). Ascorbic (AA) and dehydroascorbic (DHA) acids and glutathione (GSH) were measured at 1–2 day intervals after inoculation until after sporulation. After infection, AA and DHA increased in Little Club and decreased in Khapli. In Khapli the DHA/AA ratio rose sharply 6–8 days after inoculation; in Little Club a similar rise occurred 15–16 days after inoculation. In Khapli I and Little Club, but not in Khapli, GSH increased sharply when sporulation occurred. AA was not detected in uredospores, but DHA was. Oxidized glutathione was not detected in healthy or infected leaves but was present in uredospores. The results are discussed briefly in relation to the changes in auxin content and redox potentials caused by rust infection.

The soluble proteins of wheat leaf and of stem rust uredospores were resolved into about 28 and 34 components, respectively, by disk electrophoresis. The funguscontaining and the fungus-free areas of infected wheat leaves were examined. The electrophoretic pattern of an extract of the lesions was markedly different from the pattern of an extract of uninfected leaves. Comparison with the pattern of an extract of uredospores suggested that some of these differences were due to contamination with fungal proteins. For susceptible varieties, extracts of the extralesion areas of infected leaves showed different electrophoretic patterns from extracts of uninfected leaves. This was not so for resistant wheat varieties.

The increase in respiration in rust-infected leaves of Little Club wheat was followed and paralleled by an increase in RNA per gram dry weight. The massive increase in dry weight of infected leaves in the later stages of rust development (9–12 days after inoculation) sometimes obscured the increase in RNA when RNA was expressed on a dry weight but not when it was expressed on a fresh weight basis. There was no increase in RNA in rust-infected Khapli. Rust infection had no effect on DNA per gram dry weight in Little Club or Khapli, but DNA per gram fresh weight increased slightly (15%) in Little Club, indicating the synthesis of fungal DNA. Infection had little effect on the protein content of Little Club but markedly lowered that of Khapli. The results are discussed in relation to earlier cytochemical determinations of DNA and RNA in infected tissue.

Acid-soluble nucleotides in senescing wheat leaves tended to decrease with time in a manner similar to the decline in RNA.2 Little change was apparent in the free nucleotide: RNA nucleotide ratio. Treatment with kinetin reduced, but did not prevent the loss of soluble nucleotides. The greatest losses occurred in the nucleoside diphosphates. Rust infection increased each of the soluble nucleotides even more rapidly than it increased RNA content. Rust uredospores, themselves, appeared to possess a large soluble nucleotide pool. Uridine and adenosine derivatives were the only nucleotides consistently found. Uredospores and rust-infected leaves differed from uninfected leaves in possessing a large amount of a UDP-N-acetylglucosamine complex. The results are discussed in relation to previous measurements of RNA in senescing and rust-infected leaves.

Green Island

The accumulation of radioactivity from carbon-14 dioxide assimilation at infection sites of Uromyces phaseoli was studied. The accumulated radioactivity was found to reside essentially in starch, which has been clearly demonstrated in this study to be the result of de novo synthesis from carbon-14 dioxide at the infection site and not due to an enhanced translocation of photosynthates from non-infected leaf areas and subsequent starch synthesis.It was also shown that U. phaseoli induced an increase in the chlorophyll content of the host tissue located at the periphery of the rust colony as it developed, and a concomitant increase in starch accumulation.Unlike the ‘green island' induced by powdery mildew in wheat leaves reported by Allen, the 'green island' induced by U. phaseoli in bean leaves is the result of pigment retention in the host tissue within the domain of influence of the parasite. The chlorophyll in the 'green island' was found to be photosynthetically active. Results from experiments of photosynthesis with 'green islands' provided the unequivocal evidence to support the idea of de novo synthesis of starch at the sites of rust infection.
