      <description><![CDATA[Symptoms of soybean rust appear identical regardless if they are caused by Phakopsora pachyrhizi or Phakopsora meibomiae.  Host plants infected with soybean rust first exhibit small lesions that gradually increase in size and turn from gray to tan or brown.  They become polygonally shaped restricted by leaf veins, and may eventually reach 2 to 3 square millimeters. - Full Content set to .]]></description>
