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

Severe Fusarium wilt and crown root symptoms were observed in almond orchards in Portugal. The present study elucidates the etiology of the disease through molecular, phenotypic, and pathogenic characterization. Three Fusarium isolates from Portugal were tested and 12 Fusarium isolates from almond from Spain were included for comparative purposes. Their identity was inferred by phylogenetic analysis combining tef1 and rpb2 sequences. The Portuguese isolates were identified as Fusarium oxysporum sensu stricto (s.s.), and the Spanish isolates as Fusarium nirenbergiae, F. oxysporum (s.s.), Fusarium proliferatum, Fusarium redolens (s.s.), Fusarium sambucinum (s.s.), and Fusarium sp. Fungal colonies and conidia were characterized on potato dextrose agar (PDA) and on Synthetischer Nährstoffarmer agar, respectively. The colonies had a variable morphology and their color ranged from white to pale violet. Typical Fusarium micro- and macroconidia were characterized. Temperature effect on mycelial growth was evaluated on PDA from 5 to 35 °C, with optimal growth temperature ranging between 16.8 and 26.4 °C. The pathogenicity of F. oxysporum was demonstrated by inoculating almond plants ('Lauranne') grafted on GF-677 or Rootpac 20 rootstocks. A significant reduction in plant growth, wilting, and xylem discoloration was observed, with Rootpac 20 being more susceptible than GF-677. Infections were also reproduced using naturally infested soils. Almond plants ('Lauranne') were inoculated with isolates of all Fusarium species, with F. redolens from Spain and F. oxysporum from Portugal being the most aggressive.
