There is a rust specific to podophyllum which is commonly called 'Mayapple Rust'.  Starts as small yellow spots visible on surface of leaf and reddish 'rust' areas under them.  Spots multiply and grow until entire leaf is involved, and the leaf curls and dies.

Luckily, the asiatics seem more resistant to it.
