Book excerpt: The fungal genus Tilletia is generally recognized by the production of darkly pigmented teliospores, which replace mostly the host ovary. Currently, nearly 200 species of Tilletia species infecting Poaceae are included in this smut genus. Three species, namely T. caries, T. controversa, and T. laevis, cause economically important diseases of wheat in central Europe. Common bunt is caused by T. caries and T. laevis, whereas dwarf bunt is caused by T. controversa. The three species are described based on the morphology of their teliospores. However, they could not be reliably distinguished by...
