Panama Tropical Race 4 is slowly destroying banana plantations. This is the latest strain of the Panama disease that once took out the great Gros Michel, the alpha male of banana species, in the 1950s. There's no way to detect the fungal disease in the plants until it's too late to quarantine and wipes out the total crop.
The worst part is there's no cure. Bananas are transplanted and have no seeds. Biodiversity is nonexistent. If this disease spreads we will be eating a new banana.
