Abstract
Leaf rust caused by Uromyces aecidiiformis is reported on Persian lily (Fritillaria persica) from Markazi Province, Iran, and Western Asia for the first time. The rust is a destructive disease, with almost 100% incidence at the collection site. The fungus identity was confirmed by macro- and micro-morphological studies, as well as partial sequencing of the 28S subunit of the ribosomal DNA repeat.
