Last Updated: 2024/11/05, Rose mosaic disease is widely distributed, which can cause the decline of the yield and quality of cut rose flowers. Symptoms: the symptoms vary from rose to rose. Rose mosaic virus is characterized by small green spots, sometimes showing polygonal patterns. The leaf surface around the lesion is often more or less deformed. Some of the symptoms are circular.

Rose mosaic disease is widely distributed, which can cause the decline of the yield and quality of cut rose flowers. Symptoms: the symptoms vary from rose to rose. Rose mosaic virus is characterized by small green spots, sometimes showing polygonal patterns. The leaf surface around the lesion is often more or less deformed. Some symptoms are circular, amorphous wavy markings, and oak leaf-shaped chlorotic spots, which generally have no effect on growth, or have a slight effect on severe dwarfing. Some showed flowers and leaves; some showed a yellowish unimodal curve-like chlorosis zone at the tip or middle of the leaf or near the leaf base, or showed systematic ring spots or oak leaf-like chlorotic spots; some showed yellow veins, leaf deformities and plant dwarfing. Pathogen: there are three known viruses causing rose mosaic disease in China, namely, rose mosaic virus, apple mosaic virus and southern mustard mosaic virus. Rose mosaic virus (RoseMosaicvirus,RMV). The structure of viral material is spherical, about 25 nm. The lethal temperature was 54 ℃, the dilution end point was 1vl 125, and the in vitro survival time was 6 hours (room temperature). The route of transmission: rose mosaic virus is transmitted through juices, grafting and aphids. Rose mosaic virus overwinters in host living tissues, spreads through diseased buds, diseased scions and diseased rootstocks, and spreads disease during budding and grafting. Epidemic characteristics: the suitable temperature for the appearance of the disease is 15-25 ℃. The incidence is very mild when the disease is below 15 ℃. Plants cultivated in greenhouse are more sick than those grown outdoors. The use of diseased plants as reproductive mother plants is the main reason for the increase of diseases year by year. Prevention and control methods: 1. Avoid using susceptible rose as breeding material. Remove the diseased plant and destroy it in time to reduce the source of virus. 2. The virus can be passivated and eliminated by heat treatment at 38 ℃ for one month. 3. Timely spraying to control aphids and other virus-transmitting insects.
