Albugo candida
[edit]
White rust on shepherd's purse
- ... that white rust (pictured), a plant pathogen affecting the cabbage family, predisposes its host to develop downy mildew? Source: "The associations of downy mildew and white rust infection ... have long been observed." "A. candida predisposes the host tissues towards susceptibility to this pathogen."

5x expanded by Cwmhiraeth (talk). Self-nominated at 06:35, 16 September 2018 (UTC).
Hi Cwmhiraeth, review follows: 5x expansion confirmed from 10-16 September (I am not counting the non-prose list of synonyms in the original article as text); article is of good length; article is well written and cited inline throughout to very reliable sources; one issue I had is that the Species Fungorum reference is a dead link,. I know this was inherited from the old version of the article but is there an alternative that can be used? I will not hold up the DYK on this account though; I didn't find any overly close paraphrasing from the sources used; hook fact is interesting enough and is used in the article, it checks out to reliable source; image is appropriate, suitably licensed and clear at small resolution; QPQ has been done. Looks good to me, another nice article - Dumelow (talk) 18:35, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
- Thanks. I have replaced the dead reference. Cwmhiraeth (talk) 18:49, 24 September 2018 (UTC)
