      <description>Symptoms of soybean rust appear identical regardless if they are caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi or Phakopsora meibomiae.  Host plants infected with soybean rust first exhibit small lesions that gradually increase in size and turn from gray to tan or brown.  They become polygonally shaped restricted by leaf veins, and may eventually reach 2 to 3 square millimeters.</description>

      <description>A bacterial (rust-like) disease on kudzu was found on May 18 in Madison Parish. These pictures should help you identify the differences between this disease and rust. The water-soaked lesions are not usually present in the field, which causes this to look more like rust.</description>

      <description>Asian soybean rust ( Phakopsora pachyrhizi ) was found for the first time in the United States in Louisiana. While doing a routine inspection of a soybean production field at the LSU AgCenter’s Ben Hur Research Farm, Dr. Ray Schneider, plant pathologist, found what he suspected as Asian soybean rust.</description>

      <pubDate>Tue, 29 Mar 2005 21:22:11 GMT</pubDate>
      <description>In managing soybean rust, the use of “sentinel plots” plays a large role in providing information on the spread of the disease. The objective of sentinel plots is to have a crop in the field well ahead of the traditional crop, thus acting as a “trap” crop for the spores. If rust is detected in the sentinel plots, this will allow proper production decisions on a regional and statewide basis to be made accordingly.</description>

      <description>LSU AgCenter experts are preparing to monitor for Asian soybean rust in Louisiana this year as the fungus threatens to enter the state from a new direction – the west. The rust disease, which is spread by windborne spores, is feared because it’s hard to detect until it’s too late to do anything to stop it.</description>
