Immune varieties to given pathogen was not found among the tested varieties, however there was marked a differentiation between them by the degree of cultivar affection by the disease. A number of varieties characterized by weak development of European cancer which can be of interest for usage in breeding on resistance to given disease were marked out - Pamyat Sikory; Syabryna; Imant; Belorusskoye Sladkoye; Belorusskij Sinap and hybrid 84-125/39 (Belorusskoye Malinovoe x VM 41497). The presented method made it possible to speed up the evaluation of initial and hybrid apple material to the given pathogen that was dictated by the necessity of breeding intensification.
