Abstract
Abstract Black spot in roses caused by the hemibiotrophic ascomycete Diplocarpon rosae (Wolf) (anamorph Marssonina rosae) is the most devastating disease of field grown roses and, therefore, affects both consumers of ornamental roses and commercial production. Chemical control of the disease is restricted by regulations, and consumers increasingly demand resistant varieties. As breeding black spot resistant rose varieties is complicated by its polyploid nature and the regular emergence of new pathogenic races of the pathogen, a deeper understanding of the biological characteristics of the interaction between the fungal parasite and its host is urgently needed. This review summarizes some investigations of the parasite and its interactions from early descriptions of the pathogen to recent molecular analyses of the fungus.
期刊介绍:
Critical Reviews in Plant Sciences focuses on presenting in-depth and up-to-date reviews of timely and/or cutting-edge subjects in the broad discipline of plant science, ranging from molecular biology/biochemistry through the areas of cell biology, plant pathology and physiology, genetics, classical botany, and ecology, to practical agricultural applications. Articles in the journal provide an up-to-date literature base for researchers and students, pointing the way towards future research needs. The journal is also a significant source of credible, objective information to aid decision makers at all levels.
