Authors: B. Buckley III, J.N. Moore and J.R. Clark
Abstract:
Rosette, incited by Cercosporeila rubi (G.
Wint] Plakidas, is the most important disease
of cultivated blackberries (Rubus spp.) in the
southern United States.
A field test evaluated
sixteen blackberry cultivars and breeding selections over a three year period for incidence and
severity of rosette. 'Shawnee' and 'Rosborough'
had high incidence and severity.
Cultivars and
selections with moderate-high incidence and
low-moderate severity were 'Brazos,' 'Cheyenne,'
'Choctaw,' A-1260, A-1442, A-1560, and A-1585.
Cultivars and selections with zero-low incidence
and severity were 'Arapaho,' 'Humble,' 'Navaho,'
A-1374, A-1594, A-1618, and A-1617.
