Pucciniosiraceae
The Pucciniosiraceae are a family of rust fungi in the order Pucciniales. The family contains 10 genera and 57 species In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank of an organism, as well as a unit of biodiversity. A species is often defined as the largest group of organisms in which any two individuals of the appropriate s ....

Pucciniosira
''Pucciniosira'' is a genus of rust fungi belonging to the family Pucciniosiraceae. The type species is ''Pucciniosira triumfettae'' which is now ''Pucciniosira pallidula''. The ''Pucciniosira'' species are characterized by having ''Puccinia''-like teliospores that are produced in chains alternately with intercalary cells. The sori have a continuous to rudimentary peridium (protective layer). In some species, the teliospores break easily into halves along their septa. They form circular groups of rust spores on the lower surfaces of the leaves of various species of plants (including solanum species).U.S. Department of Agriculture The genus name of ''Pucciniosira'' is in honour of Tommaso Puccini (1666-1735), who was an Italian botanist and doctor. He taught Anatomy at Hospital of Santa Maria Nuova in Florence. Distribution The species of this genus are found in America (including north America, Ecuador, Honduras, Guatemala, Panama, and Mexico,) and Africa (including Nigeria ...

Pucciniales
Rusts are plant diseases caused by pathogenic fungi of the order Pucciniales (previously known as Uredinales). An estimated 168 rust genera and approximately 7,000 species, more than half of which belong to the genus ''Puccinia'', are currently accepted. Rust fungi are highly specialized plant pathogens with several unique features. Taken as a group, rust fungi are diverse and affect many kinds of plants. However, each species has a very narrow range of hosts and cannot be transmitted to non-host plants. In addition, most rust fungi cannot be grown easily in pure culture. A single species of rust fungi may be able to infect two different plant hosts in different stages of its life cycle, and may produce up to five morphologically and cytologically distinct spore-producing structures viz., spermogonia, aecia, uredinia, telia, and basidia in successive stages of reproduction. Each spore type is very host specific, and can typically infect only one kind of plant. Rust fungi are o ...

Paul Dietel
Paul Dietel (15 February 1860, Greiz – 30 October 1947, Zwickau) was a German mycologist. He studied mathematics and natural sciences at the universities of Leipzig, Berlin and Göttingen, and afterwards worked as a schoolteacher in Greiz, Leipzig, Reichenbach im Vogtland and Glauchau. He specialized in research of rust fungi ( Uredinales) — from 1887 to 1943 he was the author of 150 scientific papers on rusts. His extensive treatment of rust fungi in Engler and Prantl's ''Die Natürlichen Pflanzenfamilien'' was recognized as its definitive account for many years. In 1897 Paul Christoph Hennings named the genus ''Dietelia'' (family Pucciniosiraceae The Pucciniosiraceae are a family of rust fungi in the order Pucciniales. The family contains 10 genera and 57 species In biology, a species is the basic unit of classification and a taxonomic rank of an organism, as well as a unit of bio ...) in his honor.

Fungus
A fungus ( : fungi or funguses) is any member of the group of eukaryotic organisms that includes microorganisms such as yeasts and molds, as well as the more familiar mushrooms. These organisms are classified as a kingdom, separately from the other eukaryotic kingdoms, which by one traditional classification include Plantae, Animalia, Protozoa, and Chromista. A characteristic that places fungi in a different kingdom from plants, bacteria, and some protists is chitin in their cell walls. Fungi, like animals, are heterotrophs; they acquire their food by absorbing dissolved molecules, typically by secreting digestive enzymes into their environment. Fungi do not photosynthesize. Growth is their means of mobility, except for spores (a few of which are flagellated), which may travel through the air or water. Fungi are the principal decomposers in ecological systems. These and other differences place fungi in a single group of related organisms, named the ''Eumycota'' (''true f ...
