Stem rust, caused by the fungus Puccinia graminis subsp. graminicola, can cause yield reductions exceeding 90% on perennial ryegrass (Lolium perenne L.) crops grown for seed if not treated with fungicide in the spring. There is evidence that late-spring stem rust epidemics are initiated by populations that survived the winter....
