DC-electrical penetration graph waveforms for Dalbulus maidis (Hemiptera: Cicadellidae) and the effects of entomopathogenic fungi on its probing behavior.
Article in Scientific reports, 2023. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 6 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
The corn leafhopper Dalbulus maidis is an important transmitter of viruses and bacteria to maize plants. Data on the stylet probing and ingestion behavior of D. maidis, gathered using the DC-electrical penetration graph (DC-EPG) technique, are limited. The increasing prevalence of this pest and the diseases that it transmits in maize crops heighten the importance of studying how control tools affect the probing behavior of these insects, to reduce or prevent the chances of pathogen transmission and the damage from feeding. Our study recorded stylet activities of D. maidis, using a DC-EPG system and compared the appearances of waveforms with those from published AC and AC-DC EPG studies. All types of systems produced similar waveform appearances; therefore, we used the waveform nomenclature previously published. We also determined the effects of the entomopathogenic fungus Cordyceps javanica on the probing behavior of D. maidis at different time points after the fungus was applied by spraying. Forty-eight hours after the insects were sprayed, the effects were pronounced, with significant disruption of the stylet activities in phloem and non-phloem phases. Our study indicated that this commercial microbiological product, with the active ingredient C. javanica, can alter the probing behavior of D. maidis and may be helpful in management of the vector.
