Gymnosporangium sabinae is a rust fungus known as pear rust. It is a heteroecious plant pathogen with Juniperus sabina (savin juniper) as the main primary (telial) host and Pyrus communis (common pear) as the main secondary (aecial) host.

Is there any known group of Gymnosporangium sabinae that uses Prynus as the only host plant, both for the telial and the aecial stages?
