Scientists have uncovered an unexpected microbial relationship that could help explain differences in the severity of a major disease affecting common beans. The discovery sheds light on how the pathogen evolves and may point to new strategies for breeding disease-resistant crops and reducing reliance on chemical pesticides. The resulting paper is published in the journal Phytopathology.
