AI overview
Ribes is a genus of about 200 flowering plant species that includes familiar plants like currants and gooseberries, many of which are grown for their edible fruits or decorative value. The genus is ecologically significant because Ribes plants serve as the main host for a fungal disease that damages five-needle pines.
