Feeding and other inter-species relationships

Associated with Primula veris:

(live) live is parasitised by Peronospora oerteliana - a downy mildew (Peronosporales: Peronosporaceae) Ellis, M.B. & J.P., 1997
corolla tube (live) live corolla tube may house conidia Urocystis primulae - a smut fungus (Urocystales: Urocystaceae) UK/Ireland Minor Spooner, B.M. & Legon, N.W., 2006
leaf (live) live leaf has leaves shot holed by mostly hypophyllous colony of Ramularia anamorph Ramularia primulae - an anamorphic fungus (Mycosphaerellales: Mycosphaerellaceae) Ellis, M.B. & J.P., 1997 [causes round or angular, pale brown spots, each surrounded by a bright yellow or pale orange border; the centres sometimes drop out]
leaf (live) live leaf is spotted by hypophyllous colony of Ramularia anamorph Ramularia interstitialis - an anamorphic fungus (Mycosphaerellales: Mycosphaerellaceae) Bioimages - the Virtual Field Guide: http://www.bioimages.org.uk [causes yellowish spots fading outwards without definite margin, eventually dying and producing small pale brown spots with microscopic brown flecks; white felty mycelium beneath leaf may spread to cover most of leaf]
leaf (live) live leaf is spotted by mostly hypophyllous colony of Ramularia anamorph Ramularia primulae - an anamorphic fungus (Mycosphaerellales: Mycosphaerellaceae) Ellis, M.B. & J.P., 1997 [causes round or angular, pale brown spots, each surrounded by a bright yellow or pale orange border; the centres sometimes drop out]
leaf-mine leaf-mine may house puparium Chromatomyia primulae - a leaf-mining fly (Diptera: Agromyzidae) Major Spencer, K.A., 1972
leaf leaf is mined by larva Chromatomyia primulae - a leaf-mining fly (Diptera: Agromyzidae) Major Spencer, K.A., 1972 [mine long, white, linear, with frass in conspicuous, widely spaced black lumps]
ovary (live) live ovary is parasitised by embedded sorus Urocystis primulae - a smut fungus (Urocystales: Urocystaceae) UK/Ireland Minor Legon, N.W. & Henrici, A. with Roberts, P.J., Spooner, B.M. & Watling, R., 2005
