Using Unmanned Aerial Vehicle-Based Multispectral Image Data to Monitor the Growth of Intercropping Crops in Tea Plantation.
Article in Frontiers in plant science, 2022. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 3 papers.
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.
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
Aboveground biomass (AGB) and leaf area index (LAI) are important indicators to measure crop growth and development. Rapid estimation of AGB and LAI is of great significance for monitoring crop growth and agricultural site-specific management decision-making. As a fast and non-destructive detection method, unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV)-based imaging technologies provide a new way for crop growth monitoring. This study is aimed at exploring the feasibility of estimating AGB and LAI of mung bean and red bean in tea plantations by using UAV multispectral image data. The spectral parameters with high correlation with growth parameters were selected using correlation analysis. It was found that the red and near-infrared bands were sensitive bands for LAI and AGB. In addition, this study compared the performance of five machine learning methods in estimating AGB and LAI. The results showed that the support vector machine (SVM) and backpropagation neural network (BPNN) models, which can simulate non-linear relationships, had higher accuracy in estimating AGB and LAI compared with simple linear regression (LR), stepwise multiple linear regression (SMLR), and partial least-squares regression (PLSR) models. Moreover, the SVM models were better than other models in terms of fitting, consistency, and estimation accuracy, which provides higher performance for AGB (red bean:
