current literature on use of grafting technology to manage diseases and pests in vegetable production. The review provided up-to-date information on disease cycles, current disease management practices, and effects of rootstocks on controlling different

tunnels. Like any sound pest and disease management system, IPM begins with prevention. The soil one plants in and the transplants one may bring into a high tunnel must be pest and disease free. Introducing pests and diseases into the high tunnel, or

Rose rosette disease was described in the early 1940s ( Conners, 1941 ; Thomas and Scott, 1953 ). Since then, much of the work that was carried out to understand this disease was focused on multiflora roses until the 1990s. In recent years, RRD
