Fungicide use intensity influences the soil microbiome and links to fungal disease suppressiveness in amenity turfgrass.
Article in Applied and environmental microbiology, 2025. The graph could read no effect estimate from its abstract, so it casts no vote on the map. Cited by 2 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
Disease-suppressive soils have been documented in many economically important crops, but not in turfgrass, one of the most intensively managed plant systems in the United States. Dollar spot, caused by the fungus IMPORTANCE: Given the current reliance on fungicides for plant disease control, this research provides new insights into the potential non-target effects of repeated fungicide usage on disease-suppressive soils. It also indicates that intensive fungicide usage can decrease the activity of beneficial soil microbes and lead to a more disease conducive microbial environment in turfgrass. The results from this study can be used to identify more sustainable disease management strategies for a variety of economically important and intensively managed pathosystems. Understanding the factors that facilitate disease-suppressive soils will contribute to more sustainable plant protection practices.
