Highlights • 17 cultivars from 5 countries evaluated for CBSD resistance at 9 sites in Tanzania.• Site differences in disease pressure and vector abundance drove CBSD spread.• Seven cultivars were identified with strong resistance to CBSD.• CBSD-susceptible cultivars gave high yields at low disease pressure sites.• CBSD control should combine host plant resistance with phytosanitary measures.
