The Introduction of this Article incorrectly cites reference 6 as:

Kema, G. H. J. & Weise, S. Pathogens: Appeal for funds to fight banana blight. Nature 504, 218 (2013).

The correct reference 6 appears below as reference 1.

Butler, B. Fungus threatens top banana. Nature. 504, 195–196 (2013).

As a result,

“This new variant, which was originally limited to parts of Asia (Indonesia, Philippines, and China) and Australia, has recently been discovered in Latin America, raising fears of another crop collapse5,6.”

should read:

“This new variant, which was originally limited to parts of Asia (Indonesia, Philippines, and China) and Australia, has recently been discovered in Africa and Mid-East, raising fears of another crop collapse5,6.”
