Microbial Community Analysis Offers Insight into the Complex Origins of Plant Disease in a Smallholder Farm Context

Microbial Community Analysis Offers Insight into the Complex Origins of Plant Disease in a Smallholder Farm Context

Classical approaches to plant disease diagnosis assume a single pathogen/single disease paradigm. Here, we revisit the presumed role of Fusarium oxysporum as the causal agent of wilting and yellowing of chickpea plants on smallholder farms in Ethiopia. Contrary to expectations, detection of Fusarium...
