Those of you who subscribe to Alpine-L will know that for the past week
there's been an ongoing discussion about Arisaema rust, its cause and tre=atments,
most of which has previously been covered on this list.

However, a posting yesterday, copied below, brings a dimension to rusts t=hat
was news to me. Are there any treatments out there that incorporate this
knowledge into something practical? Has anyone tried eother of the 2 dyes
mentioned?

DNA testing has removed most rusts from Kingdom Fungi,   They are now usu=ally
the fungal generation of Amoebae.   In tropical fish they use aniline dye=s to
kill the free swimming generation of Ich.   Phytophthora (Root Rot, forme=r
fungus) and Macrocystis (Giant Brown Kelp, former plant) are cosely
related.   The single cell free-swimming generation being nearly identica=l.
Aniline dyes used in fish are Methylene Blue (light activated),   and
Malachite green which doesn't require light.
