1 · What the graph read from it

What it found

Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.

The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.

2 · The registry

The trial behind it

Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.

Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract

Certain synthetic herbicides can act synergistically with specific bioherbicides. In this study, a sethoxydim herbicide at 0.1× label rate improved biocontrol of herbicide-sensitive green foxtail (Setaria viridis, GFT) by Pyricularia setariae (a fungal bioherbicide agent), but did not change the efficacy on a herbicide-resistant GFT biotype. Reference transcriptomes were constructed for both GFT biotypes via de novo assembly of RNA-seq data. GFT plants treated with herbicide alone, fungus alone and herbicide + fungus were compared for weed-control efficacy and differences in transcriptomes. On herbicide-sensitive GFT, sethoxydim at the reduced rate induced ABA-activated signaling pathways and a bZIP transcription factor 60 (TF bZIP60), while improved the efficacy of biocontrol. The herbicide treatment did not increase these activities or improve biocontrol efficacy on herbicide-resistant plants. An exogenous application of ABA to herbicide-sensitive plants also enhanced bZIP60 expression and improved biocontrol efficacy, which supported the results of transcriptome analysis that identified the involvement of ABA and bZIP60 in impaired plant defense against P. setariae. It is novel to use transcriptome analysis to decipher the molecular basis for synergy between a synthetic herbicide and a bioherbicide agent. A better understanding of the mechanism underlining the synergy may facilitate the development of weed biocontrol.
