Rose Rosette Virus
By Jacob Scharfetter
Rose Rosette Virus (RRV) was first described in the 1940s and has since become one of the most destructive diseases of Rosa spp. (Conners, 1941[1]). The disease is characterized by excessive thorniness, over zealous leaf proliferation, leaf mosaic patterning, red pigmentation, and witches' broom (see image). As there is no cure for RRV most infected plants will eventually die. Typically, a mature rose plant succumbs to disease after a period of three years. However, there is great amount of variability in Rosa spp. susceptibility, e.g. Rosa multiflora is highly susceptible to the disease while Rosa setigera is believed to be resistant to RRV [2]. Rose rosette virus is widespread across the United States stretching from the eastern seaboard to the foothills of Rocky Mountains (Laney et at., 2011[3])
