International audience. Abstract Rose ( Rosa ) is a prominent ornamental plant that holds substantial economic and social significance. Roses originating from different regions exhibit intricate phenotypic and genetic characteristics, but the majority of rose genetic resources are poorly characterized. In this study, 192 genotypes of the genus Rosa were examined using 33 phenotypic traits and 10 pairs of SSR markers. Compared to wild species, both old garden and modern roses exhibited a significant level of diversity, with flower color having the highest degree of diversity and style morphology having the lowest degree of diversity. This phenomenon may be attributed to the limited utilization of wild roses due to their simpler ornamental traits and the frequent phenotypic and molecular infiltration between old garden roses and modern roses. Following a inaugural comprehensive evaluation employing principal component analysis, R. chinensis ‘Zihongxiang’, R. hybrida ‘Burgundy Iceberg’, R. hybrida ‘Conrad F. Meyer’, R. rugosa ‘Gaohong’ and R. floribunda ‘Sheherazad’ were selected as core germplasm resources for future breeding. Moreover, three tetraploid roses, namely R. hybrida ‘Midnight Blue’, R. floribunda ‘Sheherazad’, and R. hybrida ‘Couture Rose Tilia’, with significant differences in both phenotypic and molecular profiles were selected and reciprocally intercrossed. Ultimately, two populations were obtained exhibiting significant variation in flower size, annual stem color, stem pickle density, and leaf number. Furthermore, our results indicated that the traits of flower diameter, flower height, petal width, and petal number may potentially be controlled by two major-effect loci. In conclusion, this study provides novel insights into the evolutionary patterns of Rosa germplasm resources. It paves the way for identifying core genotypes that carry distinct ornamental characteristics and possess immense value for breeding novel varieties in the future.
