Plain language summary

The race Fusarium cuneirostrum was identified for the first time in Canada as part of the dry bean root rot pathogens. Dry bean varieties were identified with partial resistance to root rot, which will help with the development of resistant varieties in the future.

Abstract

Fusarium cuneirostrum was identified for the first time in Canada as part of the dry bean root rot complex. Dry bean varieties were identified with partial resistance to root rot, which will help with the development of resistant varieties in the future.
