Abstract: In the South-Eastern Romania, as in all country the rose culture is higly praised for its ornamental<br />

value both in parks and domestic gar<strong>de</strong>n. In this zone of our country the rose culture is more important because<br />

the Black Seasi<strong>de</strong> provi<strong>de</strong> a better enviroment (82 km). Besi<strong>de</strong> the growing of forign cultivars from Europe<br />

Companies, Romania has done a breeding work to <strong>de</strong>velop autochtonous cultivars (Rusticana, Ambasador,<br />

Bordura <strong>de</strong> nea, Rosagold, Simina, etc.) better adapted to our local conditions. In rose breeding besi<strong>de</strong>s the<br />

ornamental value of these flowers (nice leaves, colours and shapes) the disease resistance has been taken into<br />

acount. Among the specific pathogens very harmful for the rose culture, one can mention: Sphaerotheca pannosa<br />

(Wallr) Lev var rosae Woron (pow<strong>de</strong>ry mil<strong>de</strong>w), Diplocarpon rosae Wolf (black spott), Phragmidium<br />

mucronatum (Pers) Schlecht (rose rust) and Botrytis cinerea Pers (grey mold). One of the most effective methods<br />

to prevent these pathogens attack is breeding new cultivar and genically resistant genitors. These paper present<br />

the behaviour of 50 genotypes from rose collection of Fruit Growing Development of Fruit Tree Constanta and<br />

their response of such pathogens. The conditions of natural infections allowed grouping the biological material in<br />

4 classes of resistance. This clasifications was done acording to levels of frequency (F%) and intensity (I). The<br />

rose cultivars with genetic resistance to this pathogens are: Queen Elisabeth, Foc <strong>de</strong> tabara, Rubin, Parfum,<br />

Emerald d’or, Bel Ange, Apogee.<br />

Keywords: black spott, pow<strong>de</strong>ry mil<strong>de</strong>w, rose rust, genitors, resistance<br />

1. Introduction<br />

From the ol<strong>de</strong>st times the rose was consi<strong>de</strong>red<br />

"Queen of The Flowers" due its beauty, perfume,<br />

richness in colors and multiple shapes of the grown<br />

cultivars. Therefore, the rose place is in the front of<br />

the ornamental species used for park and gar<strong>de</strong>ns<br />

<strong>de</strong>coration and for cut-flowers production.<br />

Unfortunately, the rose as many other cultivated<br />

plants can suffer due to the attack of some very<br />

damaging pathogens. Un<strong>de</strong>r favorable conditions, the<br />

pathogens can <strong>de</strong>termine the partial or total<br />

<strong>de</strong>foliation of the plants, they become weak and the<br />

cut-flowers production can be diminished by quantity<br />

and quality as well.<br />

In or<strong>de</strong>r to prevent and control the pathogens<br />

specific to the roses, the studies carried out in<br />

Romania and in the World, were focused on<br />

i<strong>de</strong>ntification of the species responsible for the<br />

diseases occurrence and knowledge of their biology<br />

(Bedian, 1980, Bernardis, 2004, Ostaciuc, 1982,<br />

Sandu 2004, Szekelly, 1981, Wagner, 2002), and on<br />

the other hand, was investigated the efficacy of some<br />

fungici<strong>de</strong>s in or<strong>de</strong>r to control them(Bon and coll,<br />

1978, Morrison, 1978, Hagan and coll 1988, Losing,<br />

1988, Qvarnstrom, 1989, Raabe, 1989, Rolim and<br />

col, 1990, etc).<br />

The results obtained in the World (Saun<strong>de</strong>rs,<br />

1970; Klimenko, 1973; Simonyan, 1973; Semina,<br />

1980, 1984; Palmer, 1978; Costlediene, 1981) and in<br />

our country (Costache, 1993, Argatu, 1993, Sekely,<br />

1981, Wagner, 2002) clearly emphasized that the<br />

most efficient method to prevent the attack of the<br />

pathogens is the creation and extension in the culture<br />

of some roses cultivars genetically resistant to<br />

diseases.<br />

Therefore, the researches carried out during<br />

2008-2009 at Research Station for Fruit Growing<br />
