This photograph showcases a close-up of two May apple leaves with yellow spots caused by teleutosori of mayapple rust fungus Allodus podophylli (Puccinia podophylli). The focal point is centered on the top leaf, which features five lobes in a star pattern and measures approximately 12 inches across. Its green hue has been dotted with small, irregularly shaped yellow spots all over the surface.
The bottom leaf is partially visible below the image's edge and appears to be similarly affected by the fungus. The surrounding area consists of dead leaves, pine needles, and twigs on the forest floor, which serves as the background for this close-up view. – AI vision
