Damask roses are grown in several European and Asiatic countries for rose oil production. Twenty-six oil-bearing Rosa damascena Mill. accessions and 13 garden Damask roses were assayed by molecular markers. Microsatellite genotyping demonstrated that R. damascena Mill. accessions from Bulgaria, Iran, and India and old European Damask rose varieties possess identical microsatellite profiles, suggesting a common origin. At the same time, the data indicated that modern industrial oil rose cultivation is based on a very narrow genepool and that oil rose collections contain many genetically identical accessions. The study of long-term vegetative propagation of the Damask roses also reveals high somatic stability for the microsatellite loci analyzed.
大马士革玫瑰在几个欧洲和亚洲国家种植用于生产玫瑰油。通过分子标记对26个含油的大马士革蔷薇（Rosa damascena Mill.）种质和13个园艺大马士革玫瑰进行了分析。微卫星基因分型表明，来自保加利亚、伊朗和印度的大马士革蔷薇种质以及古老的欧洲大马士革玫瑰品种具有相同的微卫星图谱，这表明它们有共同的起源。同时，数据表明现代工业油用玫瑰种植基于非常狭窄的基因库，并且油用玫瑰收集品包含许多基因相同的种质。对大马士革玫瑰长期无性繁殖的研究还揭示了所分析的微卫星位点具有高体细胞稳定性。
