Open-access Influence of light and temperature on uredospores germination of Puccinia psidii winter

The objective of this experiment was to study the influence of light and temperature on uredospore germination of Puccinia psidii Winter. Two temperatures (18°C and 22°C) and five patterns of illumination (0, 4, 8, 16, and 24 hours of darkness) were tested. The results showed that the temperature of 18°C and 8 hours of darkness were the most favorable conditions for the uredospores germination.
