Abstract: Altogether 261 rose cultivars grown in four different places in Warsaw were tested for Apple mosaic virus (ApMV), Arabis mosaic virus (ArMV), Prunus necrotic ringspot virus (PNRSV) and Strawberry latent ringspot virus (SLRSV) by the serological DAS-ELISA test. PNRSV and SLRSV were found but ApMV and ArMV were not. Some of rose cultivars infected with PNRSV developed rose line patterns, ring spots or yellow nets on leaves. Other rose cultivars were symptomless infected. Reduction in size of shoots and leaves was observed in cv. 'Lagerfeuer' infected with SLRSV. This is the first report in Poland concerning the occurrence of viruses in some of field-grown rose cultivars.
