Answer:
Aecidiospore is a type of spore produced by fungi (rust fungi) belonging to the order of Uredinales. The spores are formed like pustules into a cup-shaped structure called aecium on the host plant, mostly on the leaf underside. The spores act as dispersal structures for the fungi and are carried by wind before they land on the host plant. They infect the host after entering through the stomata and germinating in the host plant. The aecidiospores causes rust disease in the host plant. Aecidiospores causes rust disease in wheat and hawthorn.
