MANHATTAN ROSE SOCIETY EVENTS
Presenting Dr Mark Windham
Saturday, June 18, 2022 @ 2PM ET – via GoToMeeting!
Members will be sent an email invite the week of the event.
“Update on Rose Rosette Disease (RRD) Research" Good News! Research, underway at Texas A&M University and the University of Tennessee, has found RRD Resistant Genes. The focus now turns to getting resistance to RRD into the roses we love and want in our gardens. We are one step closer to putting this problem behind us. Join us as Dr. Windham brings us up to date on where we stand in the fight against RRD!
Dr. Mark Windham is a Professor and Distinguished Chair in Ornamental Pathology at the University of Tennessee. He is a member of the American Rose Society and past president of the Holston Rose Society. Mark has been conducting research on roses for more than 25 years and is part of a team of scientists that has received funding from the U.S. Department of Agriculture Specialty Crops Initiative (SCRI) to combat Rose Rosette Disease (RRD). Mark’s rose rosette field site encompasses nearly 4 acres and includes more than 1500 rose bushes. In addition, Mark has rose research sites throughout Tennessee and several neighboring states. In conjunction with the rose industry, he has also screened hybrid tea and floribunda roses for resistance to black spot and powdery mildew with the goal of generating a list of roses that homeowners can grow successfully without reliance on chemical control tactics.
