Title

Other claims from this paper (5)
- Observation Accessory gene content was inconsistent among the K. variicola strains.
- Observation Pan-genome prediction revealed 22 unique virulence factors carried by the 12 pathogenic K. variicola isolates.
- Association Methanobacterium negatively interacts with Klebsiella in banana plants.
- Mechanism Herbaspirillum might indirectly inhibit Methanobacterium, thereby promoting Klebsiella growth.
- Mechanism Banana sheath rot is attributed to an imbalance between plant endophytes and opportunistic pathogenic bacteria.
