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

Weeds can cause significant yield losses and will continue to be a problem for agricultural production due to climate change. Dicamba is widely used to control weeds in monocot crops, especially genetically engineered dicamba-tolerant (DT) dicot crops, such as soybean and cotton, which has resulted in severe off-target dicamba exposure and substantial yield losses to non-tolerant crops. There is a strong demand for non-genetically engineered DT soybeans through conventional breeding selection. Public breeding programs have identified genetic resources that confer greater tolerance to off-target dicamba damage in soybeans. Efficient and high throughput phenotyping tools can facilitate the collection of a large number of accurate crop traits to improve the breeding efficiency. This study aimed to evaluate unmanned aerial vehicle (UAV) imagery and deep-learning-based data analytic methods to quantify off-target dicamba damage in genetically diverse soybean genotypes. In this research, a total of 463 soybean genotypes were planted in five different fields (different soil types) with prolonged exposure to off-target dicamba in 2020 and 2021. Crop damage due to off-target dicamba was assessed by breeders using a 1-5 scale with a 0.5 increment, which was further classified into three classes, i.e., susceptible (≥3.5), moderate (2.0 to 3.0), and tolerant (≤1.5). A UAV platform equipped with a red-green-blue (RGB) camera was used to collect images on the same days. Collected images were stitched to generate orthomosaic images for each field, and soybean plots were manually segmented from the orthomosaic images. Deep learning models, including dense convolutional neural network-121 (DenseNet121), residual neural network-50 (ResNet50), visual geometry group-16 (VGG16), and Depthwise Separable Convolutions (Xception), were developed to quantify crop damage levels. Results show that the DenseNet121 had the best performance in classifying damage with an accuracy of 82%. The 95% binomial proportion confidence interval showed a range of accuracy from 79% to 84% (
