Which plant is crown gall commonly seen in?

Crown gall is a plant disease caused by the bacterium Agrobacterium tumefaciens. This bacterium infects a wide variety of plants, but it is particularly notorious for causing galls on the roots and stems of certain species. Roses are well-known hosts for crown gall, as they are highly susceptible to infection. The galls appear as overgrowths on the plant tissues, which can lead to stress, reduced vitality, and even death of the plant if not managed properly.

While other plants like oak trees and pine trees can be affected by various diseases and pests, they are not commonly associated with crown gall. Bermuda grass, as a grass species, is also not a typical host of this specific bacterial infection, further highlighting the uniqueness of roses concerning crown gall prevalence.
