WHAT DOES ALBUGO MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Albugo

Albugo is a genus of oomycetes which are not true fungi, although many discussions of this organism still treat it as a fungus. The taxonomy of this genus is incomplete, but several species are plant pathogens.

This organism causes white rust or white blister diseases in above-ground plant tissues. While these organisms affect many types of plants, the destructive aspect of infection is limited to a few agricultural crops, including: beets, Brussels sprouts, cabbages, Chinese cabbage, cauliflower, collards, garden cress, kale, lettuce, mustards, parsnip, radish, horseradish, rape, salsify, spinach, sweet potatoes, turnips, watercress, and perhaps water-spinach.
