“…Anthracnose, a disease caused by the fungus Colletotrichum lindemuthianum, is one of the main causes of productivity losses in bean plantations, causes lesions at all stages of cultivation (Canale et al, 2020), and, if left unchecked, can lead to losses of up to 100% in production (Coêlho et al, 2016). Among these methodologies, the use of genetically resistant cultivars is crucial for controlling anthracnose; however, even with this approach and management practices, such as seed treatment, fungicide application, crop rotation and the use of certified seeds, the crop is susceptible to the disease in the presence of several breeds of the pathogen (Padder et al, 2017).…”
