Continuous flowering habit in rose is controlled by a recessive
major gene- Recurrent blooming (Albani et al., 2004)
The phenotype may have arisen from a mutation in natural
population. The rose mutant was thought to be selected from
wild Rosa chinensis in china (Hurst, 1941)
Continuous flowering habit affects other important
developmental characters
Short juvenile phase
Determinate growth habit
Self- inductive flowering habit

34. Conclusions
Past decade witnessed the development of number of molecular and
genetic tools for the study of rose
The identification of genes whose expression correlates with important
ornamental traits can facilitate and accelerate candidate gene identification
for rose breeding by marker assisted selection
Recently , the ‘Rose genome sequencing initiative (RGSI) initiated the rose
genome sequencing, this will help to understand the molecular bases for
important ornamental traits
