>It is considered inevitable that this susceptibility will spread to the Western Hemisphere, and this poses a significant threat to production because there are currently no acceptable replacement cultivars.

banananas must evolve or face the consequences of natural selection

if us humans intervene it could have catastrophic consequesnes, like how helping a butterfly out of its cocoon kills it

Humans have already interfered by controlled breeding the Banana until it doesn't have seeds any more and can only "reproduce" by having a human cut off a shoot from the base and replant it. Modern bananas literally can not reproduce at all without human intervention.

The bananas we eat today are cultivars. Fusarium is already present in most growth areas.
Resistance can be produced in other cultivars and these strains can replace the existing seedless ones. Either that or we all die of the dreaded banana drought....
