- Avoid planting beans near clover or gladioli, which may carry the Bean Yellow Mosaic Virus.
- The varieties 'BB 110', 'Goldrush', 'Oregon 54', 'Oregon 91G', and 'Roma II' are reported to be resistant to Bean Common Mosaic Virus strains.
- For more information on virus-resistant bean varieties, see the current PNW Plant Disease Management Handbook.
