Abstract

A large collection of rose genotypes was screened for resistance to blackspot caused by Diplocarpon rosae. To date 28 genotypes which display a high level of resistance could be identified. In parallel the interaction between blackspot and roses was investigated genetically. After characterising six physiological races a single dominant resistance gene against one of the races was characterised and several closely linked markers were identified.
