First Report of Puccinia kuehnii, Causal Agent of Orange Rust of Sugarcane, in the United States and Western Hemisphere

In June 2007, approximately 8 km east of Belle Glade, FL, a rust disease was observed on a sugarcane (a complex hybrid of Saccharum L. species) cultivar (CP 80-1743) considered resistant to brown rust caused by Puccinia melanocephala Syd. & P. Syd. Approximately 10 km south of Canal Point, FL, a...

520 |a In June 2007, approximately 8 km east of Belle Glade, FL, a rust disease was observed on a sugarcane (a complex hybrid of Saccharum L. species) cultivar (CP 80-1743) considered resistant to brown rust caused by Puccinia melanocephala Syd. & P. Syd. Approximately 10 km south of Canal Point, FL, another cultivar (CP 72-2086), also considered resistant to P. melanocephala, was found to be infected with a rust. Samples were sent to the USDA-APHIS National Mycologist and the USDA-ARS Systematic Mycology and Microbiology Laboratory in Beltsville, MD for identification. Observed morphological features were consistent with P. kuehnii E.J. Butler. Uredinial lesions were orange and variable in size, measuring 650 to 850 × 26 to 32 μm, hypophyllous, ellipsoidal to fusiform in shape, and distinctly lighter than pustules of P. melanocephala that were present in the area along with P. kuehnii. Urediniospores were mostly obovoid to pyriform or broadly ellipsoidal, variable in size, 32 to 45 × 25 to 30 μm, and moderately echinulate with mostly evenly distributed spines 2 to 4.5 μm apart. Walls were orange-to-light cinnamon brown, 1 to 2.5 μm thick with a pronounced apical wall thickening as much as 7 μm, and 4 to 5 equatorial pores. Similar orange uredinial lesions were subsequently observed on the same two cultivars and several other cultivars, including CPCL99-1777 and CPCL01-1055, at different locations in South Florida. Telia and teliospores were not observed. The nuclear large subunit rDNA region of the rust infecting cv. CP 80-1743 (BPI 878243, GenBank Accession No. EU164549) and the ITS1, 5.8S, and ITS2 rDNA regions of the rust infecting CP 80-1743 (GenBank Accession No. EU176009) and CP 72-2086 (GenBank Accession No. EU176008) were sequenced (1,4). All sequences were identical to sequences of P. kuehnii and distinct from known sequences of P. melanocephala (4). To our knowledge, this is the first confirmed record of P. kuehnii infecting sugarcane in the Western Hemisphere, and the disease appears to be distributed widely in the South Florida sugarcane-growing area. Although listed by P. Holliday (3) as occurring in Cuba, the Dominican Republic, and Mexico, CMI map no. 215 ed. 4 (2) does not include these three countries in the known distribution of P. kuehnii. P. kuehnii has also been reported in the literature as present in Hawaii (4). However, examination of the specimen label found that the specimen cited in those papers (BPI 079624) was actually collected in Tahiti. Therefore, the report from Hawaii is erroneous.
