Abstract
IN 1864–65 De Bary startled the biological world with his discovery of the heterœcism of the Uredineæ—with his proofs that the long suspected and often reiterated connection between the peculiar yellow fungus known as Æcidium, growing on the barberry, and the well-known rust-fungus, Puccinia, which devastates wheat and other cereals, is true in fact, and that the winter-spores of the latter germinate in spring and develop spores which infect the young barberry leaves, whereon are then developed the quite different spores of the Æcidium, which in their turn re-infect the wheat.
