I've grown local strains of Amelanchier that had less than 5% rust while Canadian types had over 80% rust, so there is a lot of variation.  Amelanchier is such a widespread genus it's very likely some exploration of wild plants would turn up ones adapted to other locales.

Are there Cedar Apple Rust resistant varieties?  I love the fruit, but
most years my 'Regent' serviceberry (A. alnifolia) sets mostly deformed,
infected berries.
