Genome sequence data reveal at least two distinct incursions of the tropical race 4 (TR4) variant of <i>Fusarium</i> wilt into South America

Abstract excerpt

The global banana industry is threatened by one of the most devastating diseases: Fusarium wilt (FWB). FWB is caused by the soil-borne fungus Fusarium oxysporum f. sp. cubense ( Foc ), which almost annihilated the banana production in the late 1950s. A new strain of Foc , known as tropical race 4 (TR4), attacks a wide range of banana varieties including Cavendish clones which are the source of 99% of banana ex...
