Abstract

Disease incidence of the parasitic rust fungus Uromvces lineolatus (Pucciniaceae) on Glaux maritima (Primulaceae) was recorded in three transects across a Baltic sea shore meadow The effects of the fungus on growth, flowering, seed production and germinability were investigated No significant differences between healthy and diseased plants were found except for abortion rate, germinability and germination rate Incidence of the disease seems to be correlated with accumulation of litter from the winter host Scirpus mantimus (Cyperaceae)
