Abstract
Root rot (P. helicoides) has recently been reported in Ebb & Flow rose production systems in Japan.
Disease severity was measured in six roses: Rosa multiflora, R. chinensis, R. × odorata (tea rose), R. hybrida Cecile Brunner (polyantha rose), R. hybrida Yellow Festival (miniature rose), and R. hybrida SCHovian (floribunda rose). R. multiflora and R. chinensis were found to have the highest and lowest resistance, respectively.
The disease severity of Cecile Brunner, which is a progeny of R. multiflora and R. chinensis, was intermediate to the two parents. R. × odorata was also found to be quite susceptible to root rot. Yellow Festival, a progeny of R. chinensis and Cecile Brunner was susceptible.
The resistance observed for SCHovian was similar to that of R. multiflora, suggesting that resistance originated from R. multiflora, and is hereditary.
